I can’t control what people think. With that photo, what happened was we picked her up from the airport. We had time and we were all hungry. We went out and had a great lunch in Beverly Hills. My intention with uploading that photo is [to show] it was a great time with friends and a great lunch, with Miss Universe Philippines 2020! So, great photo to upload, right? For the memories,” Andre said.
