Julia Barretto has been the subject of criticism since her relationship with Gerald Anderson was made public. Despite the barrage of opinions from strangers on the internet, the 25-year-old actress is a pro at blocking out the noise and focusing on the trust that they have for each other.
In a recent interview with renowned journalist Karen Davila, Julia opened up about what she felt when she was dragged into Gerald’s issue with his ex-girlfriend Bea Alonzo.“I didn’t know how to place myself in that situation. It really wasn’t an issue between three people, it was an issue between two people,” she shared.
