Here's what really went down in Kiray Celis and Mystica's alleged fight in 2020

It can be remembered that in 2020, it was reported that Mystica did not want to share a room with Kiray Celis during the lock-in taping of “Owe My Love.” In a vlog, Mystica also called out Kiray for badmouthing their co-star Buboy Villar behind his back.

Kiray finally spoke up about the issue in her interview on “Updated with Nelson Canlas."

Asked whether she did get into a fight with Mystica, she answered, “Hindi ko siya nakaaway, nakakatawa di ba?”

The actress shared that she arrived on set a few days after Mystica, and that Mystica knew they would be roommates even before taping began.

“Excited din ako kasi nakakasama ko rin nong bata ako si Ate Mystica, 'pag kunyare nagraraket-raket kanta-kanta sa mga fiesta,” she said. “Sabi ko [sa kanya] excited ako.”

After waking up from a nap, Kiray was so hungry but she didn’t bring any food, so she messaged her close friend Jason Francisco. Kiray told Mystica that she would head out to eat.

But then Mystica messaged their group chat made up of all the artists and staff, which is meant for urgent concerns.

“Nag-chat siya, sabi niya, ‘Wala dito si Kiray sa kuwarto.’ Sabi ko, ‘Hala, nagpaalam naman ako sa kanya na pupunta ako kay Kuya Jason na nagugutom po ako,’” Kiray said.

“Ayoko po isipin na kakarating ko lang doon ng first day, [tas] sasabihin naglalakwatsa po ako agad or nagiikot-ikot ako. [Parang] natakot ako na, oh my gosh, baka kung anong isipin sa akin ng mga artista dito, mga staff," she added.

In shock, Kiray went back to the room where Mystica told her, “I am not okay, hindi na ako okay.”

"'Yun pala ayaw niya akong kasama, gusto daw niya ng privacy," Kiray said. “Tapos tinatanong ako ng mga staff [kung ano ginawa ko,] wala akong ginawa diyan. Tapos 'yun pala na-ho-homesick siya, kaya [umalis] din siya sa show, kasi na-ho-homesick pala talaga siya. Gusto niya makita anak niya."

Kiray added that Mystica did not message her after that, but that she is not angry at her. She understands that not everyone would want a roommate and would rather be alone.

“Siguro hindi niya lang ma-explain na ayaw niya ng kasama. Dapat siguro parang diniretso niya ako na, ‘Girl, ayaw kita kasama’ or gusto niya daw kasi ng privacy.”
