Chloe San Jose made the remarks, “What you do to others will come right back at you 10x.” as a clap back to Ai-Ai Delas Alas, who recently confirmed that she has been separated from her husband.

It can be recalled that Delas Alas gave her two cents on the public conflict between San Jose and her boyfriend, Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo, and his mother, Angelica Yulo.

Last week, Delas Alas confirmed that she and her husband, Gerald Sibayan, have decided to go separate ways. San Jose then shared a social media card on Facebook about the actress-comedian’s previous advice to her.

“Back to you, mamang,” San Jose wrote in the caption. “Not to make fun of your situation, but what you do to others will come right back at you 10x. It’s just the universe’s law.”

Speaking out about her health once again, Kris Aquino has disclosed that she is currently in isolation because of her deteriorating condition.

The Queen of All Media posted this health update on Instagram on Nov. 10, stating that she experienced a “bad allergic reaction to the last antibiotic she could still tolerate” and that her white blood cells had decreased.

The actress-host went on to say that despite feeling hopeless due to her worsening autoimmune diseases, she “keeps [on] going” because she doesn’t want to “disappoint those praying” for her.

Meanwhile, Darla Sauler, Aquino’s close friend, recently revealed that the latter would be “back in action,” though she gave no specific details.

Aquino had also earlier declared that she would debut a new show before the year ends.

Bea Alonzo recently intrigued netizens after getting cozy with a mystery man, whom she later clarified was only a good friend of hers.

In an Instagram story, Alonzo dismissed dating speculations hounding her and a non-showbiz guy, emphasizing that they are just friends.

“Okay, this is getting out of hand. Can we all relax? We are just friends,” she wrote at the time, without expounding on the guy’s identity. “And the stories are getting ridiculous! Kalma lang po tayo (Let’s all calm down).”

This coincidentally came after Alonzo’s ex-fiancé Dominic Roque was spotted in an intimate moment with actress Sue Ramirez in Siargao.

However, Roque and Ramirez are yet to address their recent sighting, as of writing.

“Ipapakita ko sa inyo ang isa sa pinaka mahirap na journey sa buhay ko,” Alawi said on her vlog uploaded on Nov. 8. “Feeling ko nagpaalam pa nga ako sa mama ko. Feeling ko talaga it’s really my second life. I-share ko lang din sa inyo na meron akong problem sa ovaries and that’s how it started and I also have PCOS doon siya nagsimula.”
