But it seems not all of her fans are happy with her decision to settle down with Dave Lamar.

In an exchange with a netizen on Instagram, Morissette defended her decision to marry him.

The netizen pointed out that this plan will affect her international career.

“Wrong decision girl. This will be the end of your international career. Just like what happened to Jocelyn Enriquez. It's okay to be in love but think about how much you're going to lose. You are at the peak of your career right now. I'm just saying.”

The Kapamilya talent respectfully replied, “Hello po, sir. I don't reply to msgs like this, but I will to you because you're obv judging me too quickly.

"I frankly don't think I'm going to lose ANYTHING with my decision to get married, ESPECIALLY when the man I'm gonna share my life with is the same man who is currently helping me with my music.

“This being said, you outta check out my latest single and music video "Love You Still" also shot by now fiancé. And this is just the beginning :)"

The netizen clarified that he is a huge fan of Amon, but he is just concerned about her.

“Oh I'm not judging you at all. I'm actually a huge fan of yours. Nanghihinayang lang ako sa mga maaring mangyari. I used to be in the industry and in the US....when an artist lalo na pag pasikat pa lang....then they decide to get married or get pregnant....nasisira na ang career. Inaayawan na ng mga record label”

Morissette answered and told the fan that this is not the first time she got bashed for making a decision.

“All's forgiven, sir. this isn't the first time I was bashed upon with the decisions I had to make.. but we are all different people, and as for me I will still go on with pursuing my music because this is what I believe God's purpose is for me,”

Nevertheless, she firmly believes that marrying Dave Lamar will not affect her music career.

“And that can still happen even when I get married or even when I have my own family in the future..

"If we're talking about the international scene, Tori Kelly is an extremely talented artist who's still soaring with her music, and is extremely happy with her own family all at the same time.

“I acknowledge and appreciate your concern as a supporter, but there's also a lot going on behind the scenes that even my die-hard fans don't know about, but they continue to trust and support me and I am so grateful for them.”
