In a series of tweets, Heart said she realized that her tweets were out of place and that she was “sorry” for offending anyone.

“I deleted all my previous tweets. I understand the hate. I should have elaborated on my sentiments more. I am sorry. So sorry…

“You may not see my heart and that's okay. So, I just wanna say, I am truly sorry if I offended 'you.'

“So sorry, I really am :( This is driving me crazy. :( I am so sorry.”


Fans and followers were quick to accept the apology of the Kapuso actress and even advised that Heart should use her platform that encourages change.


Earlier today, March 18, Heart Evangelista received a series of negative comments from netizens about bone cancer patient Cynthia Espiritu.

In the now-deleted tweet, Heart reposted a video by GMA News that shows Cynthia explaining that she has to walk from Masinag to Marcos Highway to be able to go to PGH for her checkup.

To which Heart wrote, “Dearest Cynthia, thank you for inspiring others to smile and stay positive. God bless you and your friend.”

To which she later clarified, “I'm saying so many people are complaining at home while Cynthia is still trying to be very positive.

“Why are you hating so much? Guys, stop hating. Ang sama na ng mga nangyayari. Let's try to lift each other.”

Heart is one of the few celebrities who were called out by netizens for their comments about the enhanced community quarantine.

Included in the list are singer Lea Salonga, TV personality James Deakin, and influencer Cat Arambulo-Antonio.

Heart Evangelista responds at basher: "You seriously want to kill me?"
