Sobra na yung pambabastos ng mga tao because of fake news,” she shared.</p><p>“It took me four years to speak up about it and yung pinaka turning point din sa akin is yung family ko–– binabastos na rin especially my mom. Sabi ko, enough na po,” she added.</p><p>The Kapuso star asserted that her mother never sold her to anyone for money or investments. She maintained that she has been in the industry long enough to afford the purchases she’s been making. </p><p>“Yung sinasabi nila na binebenta daw ako ng mother ko kaya daw ako may mga investments. Siyempre, nakakabastos yun sa mother ko tapos iniisip ko din yung 15 years of hard work ko, parang tinatapon lang nila lahat yun dahil sa fake news. Sobra yung disrespect sa comments,” she maintained. </p><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/celebrities/2025/10/16/chavit-singson-denies-rumors-linking-him-to-jillian-ward-marites-lang-yun-1148"><strong>READ: Chavit Singson denies rumors linking him to Jillian Ward: ‘Marites lang yun’</strong></a></div><div><br/></div><p>Jillian assured everyone in the same interview that she can prove that she paid for all of her things as she has receipts to back it up. </p><p>“Parang everytime na may naachieve ako or may binibili ako na alam niyo naman, alam ng GMA, na I can afford it with my own money.
