According to Darryl, Charito was Pepsi’s source of comfort and support during her troubles in the showbiz industry. Although they had a falling out and didn’t speak for several years, this didn’t stop Charito from helping Pepsi in her final moments of life.
Darryl also said that Charito, along with Jaclyn Jose, went to the morgue after hearing the news of Pepsi’s passing. Despite the presence of Pepsi’s friends and manager at the time, Charito was the one who retrieved the actress’ body and took care of everything so that she could be properly buried and mourned.
Darryl left a message saying “We need a Charito Solis in our lives.” He said that someone like Charito is not always there, just quietly, but will never leave you, even in the last part of your life. Darryl Yap is a Filipino filmmaker, director, and screenwriter known for making controversial films and online content. He is the one behind VinCentiments, a social media platform that produces short films and viral videos that often discuss issues of life, society, and politics.
Amidst the ongoing rumors about the alleged affair between Chloe San Jose and Sophia Delas Alas, daughter of Ai-ai Delas Alas, Yap gave an opinion that seemed to be jokingly joining the issue. It can be recalled that Yap posted a comment, saying that she is also brave so she wants to be involved in the trouble.
