Kathryn Bernardo has finally spoken out about the ongoing rumors about the debt that Karla Estrada and her long-time boyfriend Daniel Padilla allegedly owe her. For weeks, speculations have been circulating about the large amount of money—reportedly around ₱20 million—that Karla allegedly owes Kathryn, which has reportedly caused tension between the families.
Fans of Kathryn and Daniel have been eagerly awaiting an official statement to clarify the situation, and it seems Kathryn has now decided to address the issue directly.
In a recent interview, Kathryn addressed the rumors with calm and composure, insisting that the claims of an unpaid debt are false and exaggerated. She confirmed that there was no financial conflict between her and Daniel or Karla, and that the stories circulating online were just baseless rumors. Kathryn emphasized that, despite being close friends and having a strong relationship with the Padilla family, she and Daniel have always maintained transparency and respect for each other, and money has never been a point of contention.
Kathryn explained that sometimes rumors can come out, especially in the world of showbiz, where everything is exaggerated. She made it clear that she deeply values her relationship with Daniel and Karla, and any kind of disagreement—especially about money—has never been a part of their change. Kathryn also mentioned that while disagreements can occur, she is committed to handling things privately and maturely, avoiding the need to air any grievances publicly.
At the end of Kathryn’s statement, the entertainment world calmed down a bit, with most fans taking her words as the final clarification. The incident also serves as a reminder of how quickly rumors can spread in the public eye, and how important it is for celebrities to address false claims when they arise. For now, it appears that the KathNiel family is stronger than ever, and the alleged debt issue is nothing more than a passing rumor.
