Young actor Raheel Bhyria has addressed rumors linking him to an alleged video scandal circulating on social media.
In a post on his Instagram Stories, the rising star denied claims that he deactivated his social media account due to the controversy. Bhyria shared a screenshot of a graphic art card claiming he had deactivated his accounts amid the supposed scandal and dismissed it as false.
“Chill guys, I was just hacked but now I’m back,” Bhyria wrote.
He also expressed frustration over the spread of misinformation online.
“Dami nangyayari sa mundo yet people have time to create false narratives,” he added.
The actor ended his message by sending well wishes to his followers, writing: “God bless everyone and stay safe. May pag-asa pa ang Pinas!”
The rumors about Bhyria surfaced following a wave of unauthorized video leaks involving several male personalities, including Gil Cuerva, Arron Villaflor, and Nikko Natividad, who have since released statements regarding the issue.
Bhyria currently appears in the GMA Network action series ‘Never Say Die’, where he stars alongside Jillian Ward, David Licauco, and Kim Ji Soo.
The show airs on GMA Network from Monday to Friday at 8:55 p.m..
Earlier this year, Bhyria also clarified speculation about his relationship with Ward during an interview with Boy Abunda, stating that they are only friends.
“We’re just friends. So wala, hindi ako nanliligaw,” he said at the time.
Before entering show business, Bhyria was first discovered as a model in his teenage years. He later transitioned to acting and has appeared in several GMA Network projects, while also gaining attention online for his interest in sports such as boxing and basketball.
