Matod ni Katherine sa ABS-CBN News niadtong Martes, Nobyembre 1:

“I’ve heard some rumors, some things that aren’t going on. I don’t know why it’s happening, but I respect her as a woman and I will eventually clarify all the rumors. We will clarify so there will be no misunderstanding,” kini tubag sa pang bash ni Imelda kaniya.

Butyag usab niini nga matured na usab si Imelda nga magdesisyon para sa iyang kaugalingon sa pag-quit niini isip Miss Philippines Earth.

“She is a woman. She has dreams. If she decided this, it's her decision. She's a grown up already and she knows what best for her.”

Ang 23 anyos nga model/cosmetologist excited sa pag-perform sa iyang trabaho isip bag-ong Miss Earth.
