The talent manager of Valeen Montenegro has denied accusations that the actress is the third party in the marriage of singer-actress Ciara Sotto and Jojo Oconer.
Montenegro’s manager Olive de Jesus said the allegations thrown at her talent are “not true.” She also dismissed rumors claiming that Montenegro was only able to appear in a number of APT Entertainment-produced shows because of her involvement with Oconer, who is said to be a close friend of company executive Mike Tuviera.
In her text message, De Jesus claimed that businessman Andrew de Real was the one that recommended Montenegro to APT Entertainment, paving her way to appear on noontime show “Sunday PinaSaya.”
Last Friday, Ciara announced on Instagram that she has decided to leave her husband and go back to the house of her parents, Senator Vicente Sotto II and Helen Gamboa.
The singer-actress has yet to reveal the exact reason for her split with Oconer, but she has been hinting that a third party might be involved. Sotto married Oconer in 2010. She gave birth to their first child, Vincezo Xose, last year. (MNS)
