MANILA – Regal Films matriarch Lily Monterverde has no personal grudge against Angel Locsin.

In a taped interview aired on “The Buzz” Sunday, Monteverde maintained that her “door is open for her” despite the actress’ statement saying that she could no longer appear in Regal’s next movie with Sharon Cuneta due to her busy schedule. 

Monteverde explained that she only aired her sentiment to highlight her point that it should never be about availability but honoring previous commitments.

She, however, clarified that she is not mad, adding that she would always treat Locsin as if she is one of her daughters.

When sought for her reaction, Locsin heaved a sigh of relief.

“Sa kanya ako nagsimula so nakakagaan ng loob, nakakatuwa na maayos [na ang] lahat,” Locsin said.

Before joining ABS-CBN, Locsin starred in "Mano Po 2" (2003), "Mano Po 3" (2004), and "Mano Po 5: Gua Ai Di" (2006). The actress signed a two-year exclusive contract with ABS-CBN on Aug. 11, 2007.
