“HIGH SCANDAL! Sylvia Sanchez COULD NOT STOP, KICKED and PULLED Maine Mendoza in front of many people after what she did to Arjo Atayde!

The Scene That Shook the Showbiz World

A shocking incident shook the showbiz world last night:  Sylvia Sanchez , veteran actress and mother of actor  Arjo Atayde , allegedly attacked and  grabbed Maine Mendoza  in the middle of a private party. The incident quickly went viral after several guests who witnessed it recorded and released parts of the video online.

There’s no denying it—this scene looks like it was taken from a teleserye, but the difference is, it’s  real life . The question on everyone’s mind now: what did Maine Mendoza really do to make Sylvia Sanchez, who is known for being calm and professional in the industry, lose control?

The Beginning of Trouble

It all started at a  private gathering  at a high-end restaurant in Quezon City where some of Arjo Atayde’s close friends and family were present. According to eyewitnesses, everything was quiet and happy at first, until Sylvia noticed that  Maine seemed to be behaving badly  towards Arjo.

“She suddenly became cold and mumbled something negative about Arjo,” said a guest who declined to be identified. “It was like they were both going through something, and Maine couldn’t hide her irritation.”

As the night wore on, the tension grew even more. It reached a point where Sylvia spoke up and said,  “If you can’t respect my son, don’t hurt him like this.”

The Unexpected Scene

Maine immediately responded to the comment with a cold tone, which reportedly angered Sylvia even more. “I don’t need a sermon here,” according to the voice heard in the viral clip attributed to Maine.

This is where Sylvia’s emotions finally broke out. She stood up from her seat, went to Maine, and in front of the crowd,  grabbed her by the arm while shouting, “Don’t play with my child!”

The entire venue went into chaos—some ran to stop the two, while others quickly took out their cellphones to capture the shocking scene. Some of the photos and videos immediately went viral on social media, causing an even bigger explosion of news.

Eyewitness Reactions

According to some close to the family, there has been  tension between Sylvia and Maine for a long time . There are rumors that Sylvia did not vote for Maine for her son, due to some personal and professional issues.

“This is no longer a simple fight,” another source said. “This is a long-standing anger that has only now finally erupted.”

Maine Mendoza’s Camp Statement

Word quickly spread that Maine was not only physically but also emotionally affected by the incident. In an  unofficial statement  posted on a friend’s Twitter account, Maine said that  she “didn’t deserve that kind of abuse.”

He added: “I love Arjo but that doesn’t mean I have to tolerate everything. Respect has its limits.”

However, there has been no direct official statement from Maine until now, which has only heated up the issue even more.
