According to Fermin, the dispute began when Darryl Yap’s recent projects or statements allegedly reignited discussions about the decades-old Pepsi Paloma case, a matter that Vic Sotto and his camp have sought to keep away from the spotlight. Fermin revealed during her show that Vic Sotto is rumored to be taking legal action to protect his reputation and to address the alleged misrepresentation of events tied to his name.

“This issue is something Vic has tried to move past for years. If there’s any misrepresentation, I understand why he would take action,” Cristy Fermin shared.

Darryl Yap, known for his bold and provocative works, reportedly touched upon aspects of the case in a way that Vic Sotto’s camp found unacceptable.

Neither Vic Sotto nor Darryl Yap has issued an official statement addressing the matter, leaving the public speculating on the exact details of the lawsuit. Fans and followers are divided, with some supporting Sotto’s move to protect his legacy and others defending Yap’s right to creative expression.

Social media has been abuzz with reactions, with netizens calling for clarity and sensitivity when discussing historical controversies. “The Pepsi Paloma case is a delicate topic that needs to be handled responsibly. Both sides should be heard,” one commenter wrote.

As Cristy Fermin continues to provide updates on the issue, the entertainment world is on edge, awaiting confirmation and further developments from both parties.
