GMA Network has just fired a statement at Sarah Lahbati. On its statement issued on Friday, GMA said that the network is still investigating Lahbati “walking out during taping which incur an additional five hundred thousand pesos additional expense”.

Sarah defended her part right after she read the statement.

not even a down payment. My mother asked my handler many times regarding the payment and until now there is no reply.

There are many more incidents that I am not saying. I hope this will end soon because I am tired and stressed out from all of this.
