Filipino actor James Reid recently responded to AlDub fans who have been bashing him on various social media platforms.
In an interview with PEP.ph, Reid was asked to react on the ongoing bashing incident by AlDub fans between him and his co-star Nadine Lustre.
According to the former "Pinoy Big Brother" contestant, he doesn't really mind being bashed by others because he isn't bothered by them at all.
Meanwhile, Reid and Lustre's TV show on ABS-CBN has been doing really well on primetime.
Just recently, Lustre opened up about her relationship with her co-star after a columnist claimed that they are now officially a couple.
After Eric John Salut posted a series of tweets claiming that Reid and Lustre are now official, the latter replied to one of her followers on Twitter saying that there's no truth to such claims.
"I don't know po who your source is but it's not true. We don't want the fans po to expect anything from us," she wrote.
Salut also released a series of tweets following Lustre's statement. According to the reporter, he will no longer write or talk about the onscreen couple because he received a bunch of calls and texts for his previous posts.
"For my own peach of mind, I will no longer talk about @hellobangsie and James and their friendship anymore. Na stress ako sa text/calls asking if it's true na sila na. Ngayon lang nangyari ito sa akin, that I get bombarded with questions about a love team about their status," he wrote.
Salut also apologized to both Reid and Lustre by saying that he just got carried away by all of the updates he received from other people.
In other news, Lustre previously spoke with Yes! Magazine about potentially dating Reid.
At that time, the 22-year-old actress said that she is not closing her doors to the possibility of dating and being in a relationship with her co-star.
However, as of late, both of them would like to prioritize their respective careers especially now that "On the Wings of Love" is receiving very impressive ratings every day.
"I guess I have this unconditional love for him because we do everything together," she said.
