She said she's aware that Belo tagged her on her Twitter post, but she's not dating the former's boyfriend.

"Actually, to be honest, I am not really sure what's going on. Everyone knows that I've been busy with a different career, I have my family, I am not in touch at all with what's been going in with showbiz industry."

"This is kind of shocking. Naninibago uli ako na kasama ako sa isang isyu. I don't know what's really happening, to be honest."

Last Friday, Belo surprised the Twitter world when she announced that Hayden can now publicly date Castiglione and they have her blessings.

Kho immediately clarified the tweet of the celebrity doctor and said it is just a misunderstanding between them and no need to jump to any conclusion.

He also clarified that he's not going out with Nancy and he already apologized to the latter for dragging her name.

"First off, I'd like to make it very clear that Vicki and I are not fighting because of Nancy. I have already apologized to Nancy for getting her name dragged into this minor bump in my relationship with Vicki," Hayden said.

"I feel that the public doesn't have to get involved in this but since names have to be cleared and this issue involves the welfare of two innocent toddlers, I will have to speak out my piece, but at the right time. Thank you," he added.

Nancy reiterated that she's a committed woman and has two kids. She added that there's just a miscommunication or a misunderstanding on what took place.

She also admitted that she and Hayden and friends but they only talk through the micro-blogging site. Nancy added she would sometimes tag Belo's name in the conversation.

"Hayden and I are acquaintances, we're friends that's true because I still retained some friends in the industry, among many others. But that's about all I can tell you," she said.

The TV personality said she is saddened that her name is dragged in this latest controversy while she's living a private life.
