KC Concepcion confirmed that she unfollowed her stepfather Kiko Pangilinan and half-sister Frankie Pangilinan to maintain her peace of mind.
In an interview with Cristy Fermin, KC said that there was a ‘complication’ for her to be part of a blended family.
She also insisted that there was nothing wrong with unfollowing Kiko and Frankie, explaining that she only wanted to take care of her mental health.
“Hindi naman po masama na magkaroon ng time na meron kayong ina-unfollow, or meron kayong ipa-follow. Mahirap lang po talaga kapag showbiz po yung family, talagang lahat po pinupuna po,” she said.
“Ako kasi, I think, yung sa akin is more of, like I said, may mga complicated po talaga pagdating sa blended family. Meron din po talagang mga times na hindi perfect, hindi po kami perpekto. And hindi po lagi kailangang perfect.
“So, wala naman po akong gustong ikuwento pa apart from the fact na, ako, I just want peace of mind, I want to be happy. I want my family to be happy. Ang gusto ko lang maging light, masaya, ayoko ng maraming drama, ayoko ng maraming hindi… yung forgiveness kasi sa family, important din yun siguro para maging okay yung takbo ng relationship ng lahat.”
KC also clarified that she made an effort to be close to her half-siblings.
“Kahit po yung mga half-sister ko na hindi ko na po kasama sa bahay, pinipilit kong maging close kami — from Garie to Chloe to Frankie to Miel to Miguel to Samantha to Savannah. Very close po ako sa mga half-sister at half-brother ko,” she said.
“I just think na may mga moments na wala na akong control, mas gugustuhin ko pong i-keep ang aking peace of mind. Kasi po 30s na rin po ako, di na po ako bata. So, may mga panahon din po na parang isipin ko muna yung mental health ko, kung ano yung makakabuti sa peace of mind ko kahit ano pa yan, mas uunahin ko po muna yun,” she added.
As of writing, Kiko and Frankie have yet to give a response on the issue.
