On Twitter, Bretman pleaded to his fans to let him be sad for once as the Hawaii-based beauty influencer flew back to the Philippines to mourn the death of his father.

Can people just let me be sad for onces.... I’m here in the Philippines for my dad who just passed, don’t come to my house and ask me for pictures.. so many people showed up to my dads funeral uninvited and started taking pics of my dad and my family..

"I’m here in the Philippines for my dad who just passed, don’t come to my house and ask me for pictures.. so many people showed up to my dads funeral uninvited and started taking pics of my dad and my family," he said.

He added, "I just don’t understand why people think it’s okay to ask me for pictures when my eyes are literally swollen from crying ... how you gonna say “condolences , can we take a picture ?”
