Kasi very important sa pamilya namin &#x27;yung mga Gonzaga. They&#x27;re very loving to our family. Alex is a very good friend of my sister. So, talagang mahal na mahal ng pamilya namin ang mga Gonzaga, and vice versa,&quot; she explained.</p><ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/01/18/23/look-alex-gonzaga-apologizes-to-waiter-in-viral-clip">LOOK: Alex Gonzaga apologizes to waiter in viral icing-smearing clip</a></li>	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/01/22/23/what-alex-toni-said-about-cake-during-concert">&#x27;Lumalayo na ako diyan!&#x27; What Alex, Toni said about &#x27;cake&#x27; during concert</a></li></ul><p>Barretto recalled contacting Gonzaga when the video, which she had uploaded as an Instagram Stories update, started circulating online.</p><p>&quot;Alam naman iyon ni Alex, kasi sa kaniya talaga ako unang nag-reach out.
