Angel Locsin appeared unbothered by reports that Mariel Rodriguez-Padilla had unfollowed her on Instagram after the actress’ open letter addressed to Senator Robin Padilla.
Netizens recently noticed that Angel liked an Instagram post discussing Mariel’s decision to unfollow her and fellow actress Anne Curtis, a move that quickly fueled online discussions.
Screenshots circulating on social media showed a post with the caption, “Angel Locsin liked this IG post captioned about Mariel unfollowing her and Anne.”
The interaction prompted mixed reactions from netizens, with some saying Angel seemed unaffected by the reported social media move, while others pointed out that she and Mariel were never known to be close friends.
The online buzz followed Angel’s strongly worded open letter to Robin Padilla, which she shared through her Facebook Story. In the message, Angel urged the senator to “wake up” and questioned several of his political positions, including his alleged silence during the time she was red-tagged and his support for controversial figures and issues.
Following Angel’s statement, eagle-eyed netizens noticed that Mariel had reportedly unfollowed the actress on Instagram. Anne Curtis also drew attention after publicly showing support for Angel by commenting, “Welcome back mars, ay Darna pala,” on one of the actress’ posts. Reports later surfaced claiming that Mariel had likewise unfollowed Anne, along with actors Piolo Pascual, Pokwang, and Angelica Panganiban.
Despite the reported unfollow, social media users observed that Angel continues to follow Mariel on Instagram.
As of writing, neither Angel Locsin nor Mariel Rodriguez-Padilla has publicly addressed the reported Instagram unfollow or Angel’s apparent reaction to the online discussions.
