Hiniling ng mga netizens sa aktres na si Claudine Barretto na huwag gamitin ang yumaong ex-boyfriend na si Rico Yan para sa kanyang kampanya.
Ito ay matapos sabihin ni Claudine na humahanga ang yumaong si Rico Yan at ang pamilya nito kay Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte. Ito ay ayon sa kanyang komento sa Instagram.
Ayon pa kay Claudine: “It was about year 2000 when we met with President Duterte. In that same year we met Maam Sara & lastly BBM. Rico looked up to these people. Our whole family is BBM only Marjorie & her kids are Leni. Tita Sita Yan & I & my mom BBM rin po. Pls let us all respect everybody. Stay safe and God bless all of you.”
Noong Oktubre ng nakaraang taon ay nag-file si Claudine at ang kanyang talent manager na si Arnold Vegafria ng kanilang mga certificate of candidacies (COCs) sa Olangapo City.
Si Claudine ay tumatakbong konsehal, habang si Arnold naman ay tumatakbo bilang alkalde sa ilalim ng Partido Demokratiko Pilipino-Lakas ng Bayan (PDP-Laban) party at lokal na partidong “Anak ng Gapo Coalition.”
Dahil sa pahayag na ito ni Claudine ay kinastigo siya ng mga netizens sa Twitter. Sinabihan din siya tigilan na ang paggamit sa pangalan ni Rico para diumano sa kanyang pansariling kapakanang pulitikal.
Narito ang ilan sa mga tweets ng mga netizens.
Claudine Barretto can smell she's gonna lose her councilor bid in Olongapo so she's putting words in her dead ex's mouth. Let's not forget her imbento love letter daw ni Rico Yan na malayo ng sulat na lumabas lang when she was already running.

Can Claudine Barretto stop exploiting a dead man already? This has gone too far. Rico Yan does not deserve this.

Claudine Barretto should stop using Rico Yan in all things she does or remembers! The guy died long time ago. Honor his memory by shutting the hell up! Why do you always involve him in everything that you do? For what? For influence? Sympathy? For what?

Claudine Barretto doesn’t know the word delicadeza. Let Rico Yan Rest In Peace just because your name can’t draw in a crowd anymore.

Ang aktor na si Rico ay ang dating partner ni Claudine on and off screen. Namatay si Rico sa kanyang pagtulog noong madaling araw ng Marso 29, 2002, mula sa acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis.
Inalala din ng aktres ang dating nobyo sa ika-47 na kaarawan nito noong nakaraang buwan.
