Kapamilya actress Belle Mariano, half of the popular DonBelle loveteam, has made a heartfelt appeal to everyone to spread kindness and positivity amid growing negativity online.
In her Instagram story, Belle reminded Filipinos that the country is facing bigger challenges that deserve more attention than fueling hate on social media.
“I call on everyone to let go of the negativity and hate that’s been going around,” she said.
She added:
“There are bigger, more important things that need our attention. Let’s choose kindness, patience and understanding.”
Her on-screen partner Donny Pangilinan earlier defended Belle against false narratives circulating online.
“As for Belle, please keep her out of your narratives. She is beautiful, talented, and most importantly, has a great heart. Nothing you say or do will change that,” Donny said.
