In an interview with the media, Tanya said Vhong's former partners are very supportive of Vhong.

"Sobrang supportive. Alam mo, para kasi kaming family, e. So, siyempre, may time na mas focused ako kay Vhong,” Tanya said. 

"Talagang inaano nila, ‘Huwag kang mag-alala. The boys are okay,’ ganyan. Sila talaga constantly tsini-check kami," she added.
