Liza Soberano didn’t bat an eyelash when she defended her co-star Sofia Andres over those criticizing her attitude.It may be recalled that Sofia recently made headlines after certain bloggers called her out for fiddling on her phone during press events. Sofia has since apologized for the incident. <div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2018/3/7/fresh-scoops/taking-the-higher-road-sofia-andres-apologizes-fo-179799">READ: Taking the higher road: Sofia Andres apologizes for being disrespectful </a></div>Liza swiftly defended Sofia from the issue during <a href="http://entertainment.abs-cbn.com/tv/shows/bagani/main">Bagani’s</a> recently-concluded thanksgiving press conference. “I think the misconception with Sofia kasi is she&#x27;s very shy,” she said.She even went on to share how Sofia was on the set of their well-received fantasy primetime soap.“Like, even in our set, we play together, a lot of us. Pero siya, nahihiya siya, sa corner lang siya. Parang kami, we really have to grab her to play with us,” Liza said.Liza surmises that Sofia’s reclusiveness could be due to her upbringing.“I think siguro her upbringing in her house,” she said adding that it could also be because Sofia’s a middle child.After her onscreen partner Enrique Gil pointed out that he is also a middle child, Liza explained that women tend to have other emotions.&quot;She&#x27;s a female, Quen. We have emotions,” Liza blurted.Before the press could even react, Liza quickly clarified her statement.“I&#x27;m not saying that you guys don&#x27;t have emotions, but we&#x27;re emotional creatures… I&#x27;m just saying that as females, especially at that time of the month, you know,” she said.Even Sofia’s Bagani directors rallied to her side.Direk Richard Arellano even poked fun of the incident by stating, “May isyu ba?”But he quickly turned serious and he reiterated, “Parang anak lang na tinuturuan mo nang tamang bagay. Cooperative naman si Sofia.”Even Direk Lester Pimentel lauded Sofia’s attitude on set.“Kapag tinitingnan mo si Sofia, kapag tinitingnan mo siya, mahinhin,” he said. “Pero kapag nasa take na o nasa shoot, she does everything. So far, we didn&#x27;t use any double for her. Kahit na gaano kahirap, gaano kapagod, she never says no, very, very professional.&quot;
