In what has quickly turned into one of the most explosive celebrity controversies of the month, former actress and celebrity mom Jackie Forster is now facing the wrath of netizens after boldly denying that her son, basketball star Kobe Paras, is currently in a romantic relationship—despite mounting evidence to the contrary.

It all started during an impromptu interview where Jackie, when asked about Kobe’s rumored romance, gave a flat-out denial that immediately sent social media into a frenzy.

“He’s single. No girlfriend,” Jackie said with a confident smile. “He’s focused on his career, not on love.”

But oh, how wrong she may have been.

Just hours after her statement made rounds online, eagle-eyed netizens came through with receipts—and they came in hot. Fans flooded X, Facebook, TikTok, and even YouTube with a now-viral video showing Kobe Paras holding hands and cuddling with a mystery woman in a dimly lit restaurant in Bonifacio Global City just last weekend.

The video, shaky but clear enough, shows the basketball hunk whispering and laughing intimately with a woman believed to be an up-and-coming influencer-model from Cebu. The clip ends with the two getting into Kobe’s car—together.

Needless to say, the internet erupted.

“Jackie Forster lied to our faces! Ma’am, your son is boo’d up and we got the footage!” one furious fan tweeted.
“We’re not blind. We saw the receipts. Jackie, why the cover-up?” another user posted.
“Are they hiding the girl? Or is there a deeper reason for the denial?” questioned a TikTok video with over 2 million views.

Within just 12 hours, the hashtag #JackieLies trended at No. 1 nationwide, followed closely by #KobeCaught and #WhoIsShe as netizens scrambled to identify the mystery woman and uncover the real story behind the denial.

Some believe Jackie may have been unaware of her son’s current relationship, while others insist she was deliberately hiding the truth to protect Kobe’s image—or perhaps even to avoid a media firestorm surrounding the identity of his rumored girlfriend.

A few conspiracy theories have even emerged suggesting the girl may be involved in another relationship, or that Jackie disapproves of her entirely.

“Maybe she’s not the girl Jackie wants for her son. That’s why the denial. Classic protective mom move,” one netizen speculated.

Meanwhile, Kobe has remained silent, neither confirming nor denying the viral footage or responding to the frenzy online. The mystery woman has also yet to make any public statement, though several influencers who follow her have suspiciously gone private since the video dropped.

Sources close to the Paras camp say tensions are rising behind the scenes, especially as the clip gains even more traction and is now being picked up by major entertainment outlets.

Insiders claim Kobe has no plans of going public with any relationship and that he’s been trying to keep his love life under wraps to avoid distractions as he prepares for upcoming basketball commitments abroad.

But with the video out in the open—and Jackie’s denial still fresh in everyone’s minds—the damage may already be done.

Some fans have now turned their frustration towards Jackie, accusing her of manipulating the narrative and “treating the public like fools.”

“You can’t just gaslight the whole country,” one viral post read. “We saw what we saw.”

In contrast, a number of supporters have come to Jackie’s defense, suggesting that perhaps the comment was innocent, or that she simply wasn’t informed.

“Let’s not crucify her yet. Maybe she truly didn’t know,” one fan page wrote. “Moms aren’t always updated, especially when it comes to their sons’ secret love lives.”

But in the unforgiving court of social media, intentions matter less than impact—and for many, Jackie’s words now feel like a betrayal.

So what’s next for Jackie and Kobe?

Will the young basketball star clear the air? Will the mystery girl step forward? Or will the Forster-Paras family continue to stay silent as speculation grows louder by the minute?

One thing is for sure: the truth is out, the fans are watching, and in the digital age, nothing stays hidden for long.

Stay tuned. The drama’s just heating up.
