<p>MANILA – Albie Casino is apologizing to everyone who was offended by what he said about his ex-girlfriend Andi Eigenmann during his last livestream on Kumu before entering the Big Brother house.</p><p>In an interview with Toni Gonzaga for her vlog, Casino acknowledged that the things he said were wrong and he is sorry to those he offended.</p><p>“My manager actually told me not talk about this. But I feel like as a man, I have to. First of all, I really didn’t think that it would pick up that much traction. I really honestly did not think that it would spread like wildfire, what I said,” he said.</p><p>“I know now that I was wrong to say that. I want to apologize to everybody who was offended by what I had to say. I was in the spur of the moment,” he added.</p><ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/10/28/21/no-holds-barred-albie-gets-real-about-andi-eigenmann">&#x27;No holds barred&#x27;: Albie Casiño gets real about Andi Eigenmann</a></li></ul><p>One of the things Casino mentioned during the Kumu stream was about how it makes him happy that Eigenmann has gained a lot of weight.</p><p>Getting candid about his previous statement, Casino said: “To be completely honest, I wanted to say something that would make her feel bad because of all of the anger that I had, all the pent up frustration that I had from all of the years.”</p><p>“I felt like this would be a way for me to say something funny, at the same time get back at her for what she did to me. But I did not expect it to be taken that way,” he added.</p><p>Owning up to his mistake, Casino said: “I want to apologize to everybody else who took what I said and got offended by it. I really did not mean to offend anybody else. But then again, hindi ako naghuhugas kamay dito. I really did want to say something to make her feel bad. That is also wrong.”</p><p>When asked if he is still mad at Eigenmann, he said: “I don’t think mawawala na yun eh. It’s not there all the time. If someone brings her up to me, it’s not good emotions that I am thinking, it’s not good feelings that I am feeling. I am only human. Like I said, I’d like to think of myself as unfiltered. That’s why I said those things.”</p><div><strong>FROM THE ARCHIVES</strong></div><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6niUgLsCPew?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a></div><p>He, however, stressed that he regrets saying it especially since he has resolved to only spread positivity.</p><p>“In my mind, I was like, ‘They publicly ruined me. They had me assaulted. They dragged my family.’ That was what was going through my head. But like I said, I know now with the platform that I have, I shouldn’t be saying those things. I regret saying it. The platform that I have now, I want to spread positivity and with that statement, there was nothing positive about that.”</p><p>Casino’s name was dragged during Eigenmann’s pregnancy in 2011. </p><ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/09/05/11/andi-names-albie-babys-dad">Andi names Albie as baby&#x27;s dad</a></li></ul><p>Casino at the time was a fast-rising star, paired with Kathryn Bernardo in the primetime series “Mara Clara.” The controversy proved to be a challenging period in his career.</p><p>In 2016, Eigenmann’s boyfriend after Casino, Jake Ejercito, confirmed that he is the father of Ellie.
