Although he hasn’t particularly directed any of his posts to Sam Milby, one of them contains the word “Sam” which seemingly pertains to the Kapamilya actor.
A series of posts, which, when flipped through in succession, reads: “Don’t worry, I am only the ex.”
Meanwhile, in another post, he said “dating app” does not equate to “church” — with several fans convinced with he was implying to the way Sam and Catriona, a Christian couple, met each other.
While fans continue to decipher the meaning behind his posts, one seemingly refers to his ex-girlfriend. He wrote in one post: “P.S. I create Queens. It was followed by another post which reads: “Because I push You Beyond all your Limits.”
