Katrina Halili comes clean on her brief affair with Dr. Hayden Kho..

In an interview with GMA-7's entertainment field reporter Lhar Santiago, the embattled sexy actress affirmed Hayden Kho's confession that they had a brief affair. His revelation reportedly triggered the collapse of Hayden's relationship with girlfriend and popular cosmetic surgeon, Vicki Belo.

"Nagkamali ako. Siyempre tao lang naman po ako, di ba? At least, kaya nga nung nalaman kong nagkamali ako matagal na akong lumayo at matagal ko ng pinagsisihan ‘yon. Kaya ngayon hinarap ko siya, na sinasabi kong hindi ako affected dahil matagal ko na pong pinagsisihan kung ano ‘yong pagkakamali ko," said Katrina.

The interview was conducted over the weekend at the taping of Gagambino where Katrina is part of the cast.

ASKS FOR UNDERSTANDING. Aware of the negative implications of her actions, Katrina asked the public not to judge her outright, based merely on what they heard or read.

"Kung talagang masama akong tao, nanay ko na mismo ‘yong hihila sa 'kin dito, tumigil na ko sa showbiz, pauwiin na ako sa probinsya. Hindi, e, nandiyan ‘yong nanay ko, nandiyan ‘yong family ko, 'yong mga kaibigan ko. Alam nila kung ano 'yong totoong nangyari at alam nila na siyempre nagkamali ako at pinagsisihan ko ‘yon," the lead star of One Night Only reasoned out.

Katrina also dismissed a nagging perception that she single-handedly tore down Hayden and Vicki's relationship. A combination of many factors that snowballed led to the breakup, according to the StarStruck alumna.

"Kung naghiwalay sila, maraming ibang bagay ‘yon. Huwag naman pong ako lang. Maraming ibang bagay, ang baduy naman na hiwalay sila dahil sa ‘kin lang e, ang tagal-tagal nang wala."

Katrina is set to leave the country tomorrow, December 30, together with rumored boyfriend Kris Lawrence for a vacation. She will also celebrate her birthday on January 4 in the U.S.

Explaining her rumored beau's indifference to the third-party issue, Katrina explained: "Nasabi ko na po sa kanya lahat. So, kung napapansin nila ‘yong mga interview ni Kris kasi, dedma na lang siya. Kasi alam naman niya kung ano ‘yong totoong nangyayari."
