It can be recalled that Regine criticized the Twitter post of Department of Foreign Affairs Secretary Teddy Locsin, Jr regarding giant clams.

Apparently, the comment from the singer did not sit well with the journalist. Through social media, he expressed that Regine should focus on her career and stop involving herself to this kind of issue.

Ogie defended his wife by saying, “Sir @bitagbentulfo . I offer my cheek to you. After you have maligned my wife I ask that you focus on me. She is after all a lady. God bless you sir.”
