For years, Maine Mendoza has remained quiet despite the huge speculations about her personal life. But in a special interview with talent manager and vlogger Ogie Diaz, it seems the Phenomenal Star’s patience has reached its limit. For the first time, Maine directly addressed “AlDub” fans who until now believed that she and Alden Richards are married and have a child.

According to Maine, the imagination of some fans who are trying to create baseless stories is worrying. She emphasized that there is no truth to the news that she and Alden have a “secret marriage” or that they are hiding a child. For Maine, her silence before did not mean consent, but was just a way to avoid trouble. But now that she is about to enter a new phase of her life as Arjo Atayde’s wife, she felt that this was the right time to clarify everything.

“It’s also tiring to always be making up stories,” Maine said in the interview. She shared the sadness she feels when she sees fans fighting or getting angry with people close to her just because of wrong beliefs. She also said that she respects the fans’ love for the “AlDub” loveteam, but she asks them to separate reality from the screen persona they loved. Her and Alden’s pairing is a huge part of her career that she will always be grateful for, but when it comes to real life, they take different paths.

On the other hand, Maine also defended her fiancé Arjo Atayde from the criticism of some malicious fans. Despite the negative comments, their relationship remains strong and they are focused on building their own family. Many admire Maine’s courage to speak out, because it is not easy for an artist to call her own supporters “delusional.” But according to her, the truth will set everyone free.

The discussion about how her family is being affected by the spread of false news also got emotional. Maine calls on fans to be critical and not simply believe in “edited” photos or videos that are used as “receipts” of untrue events. Her interview with Ogie Diaz serves as a final warning and plea for silence and respect—not only for her, but also for Alden and the Atayde family.

In the end, Maine’s message is clear: true love for an idol is accepting their true happiness. As her wedding day with Arjo approaches, Maine asks her fans to accept the truth and let her be happy on the path she has chosen. “AlDub” will remain a fond memory, but Maine Mendoza’s life continues to move forward with the person she truly loves.
