YouTuber-actress Bea Borres had enough of netizens who kept hounding her about Andrea Brillantes and the latter's alleged role in the breakup of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla.
Bea and Andrea are close friends, and the former is a staunch defender of the actress against bashers every time Andrea gets involved in controversies.
In a TikTok video uploaded on Friday, December 1, 2023, Bea got ticked off after a netizen probed her why she and Andrea remain mum about the issue.
Asked the netizen (published as is), "huy mare bat antahimik mo ngayon."
Bea fired back, sounding upset, "Mag-asaran tayo dito. Wala kayong makukuha sa 'kin."
She continued, "Noong ako salita nang salita, gusto niyong manahimik ako. Sasabihan niyo akong sawsawera.
"Tapos ngayong nananahimik ako, kung anu-ano pa ring sinasabi niyo."

The video was uploaded a day after Kathryn and Daniel confirmed their breakup after 11 years of being a couple.
Rumor has it that Andrea had an affair with Daniel, making her the third party behind the breakup.

KathNiel fans interpret Bea's dismissive attitude as confirmation that there was perhaps truth to the rumor.
“OKAY CONFIRMED MARE THANKS SA INFO," a netizen commented on Bea's video.
Another one remarked, "sagutan palang ni bea confirmed na eh HAHWHSHAHAHAHAHAHA"
Blurted a netizen, "Kung ako din NASA wrong side, talagang mananahimik din ako"
SHIELDING ANDREA
Bea's silence in defending Andrea against the controversy was seen by some as unusual.
In October, Bea engaged basketball player Ricci Rivero in a heated exchange on X (formerly Twitter).
Ricci is Andrea's ex-boyfriend and their breakup in May of this year was also marred with cheating allegations.

Ricci, believing Bea was pertaining to him, retaliated, "puro tweet, Bea. Gusto mo maglabasan tayo ng labada? Tara sabihan tayo kung sino talaga kumakabit? Hingi ka lifeline para may bala ka bago ka mag reply publicly for your publicity. Sayang pakikialam mo kung di ka kasama sa headline."
