Drama is never lacking in the Philippine entertainment industry, and this time, it revolves around Karla Estrada, talk show queen and mother of Daniel Padilla, as she reportedly expressed her public disappointment in Kathryn Bernardo after her intimate bed scene with Alden Richards.
Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards recently collaborated on a new project where they played a passionate couple. One scene that particularly caught attention was the bed scene between the two characters, which was shot realistically and intensely. While fans praised the two for their professionalism, some felt that the scene crossed the line.
Karla Estrada, who has always been particularly protective of Kathryn and Daniel, was reportedly unhappy with Kathryn’s decision to take on the role.
In a recently revealed private conversation, Karla Estrada is said to have said:
*”I’ve always supported Kathryn, but this time is different. She needs to remember that there are boundaries to be respected, especially when she’s still with Daniel.”*
This statement quickly sparked talk that Karla felt Kathryn was “giving up too much” to achieve her career success.
The online community was immediately divided into two opinions. One side believes that Karla is right to protect Kathryn’s image and maintain her relationship with Daniel:
“Karla just wants the best for her son. This scene was a bit too much in their context.”*
However, many others believe that this is just part of the job and that Kathryn did nothing wrong:
“Kathryn is a professional actress. She has the right to challenge herself with difficult roles.”*
Both Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards have remained silent on this controversy. A source close to the matter said that Kathryn feels pressured but believes that her work will be judged fairly by the public.
Will the conflict between Karla Estrada and Kathryn Bernardo be resolved, or will this be the beginning of a larger conflict in the entertainment industry? Either way, this story will certainly attract attention in the near future.
