Rhys Miguel Eugenio accuses ‘He’s into Her’ co-star Patrick Quiroz of sexual harassment
Additionally, Eugenio alleged that Quiroz raped his love-team partner and that the management did not do anything to address the issues related to his co-star.
“Management, wala silang [ginawa]. Three days lang bago nangyari ‘yung accident ko, ginawa niya rin sa dalawang talents namin,” he said. (The management did not do anything. Three days before my [incident] happened, he also did that to our two other talents.)
“‘Yung decision ng management, i-keep namin ‘yan diyan kasi konti na lang ‘yung oras ng shooting. Nangyari pa rin sa’kin,” he added. (The management decided to keep him [in the lock-in taping’s location] because we were almost finished shooting. Yet it still happened to me.)
“He’s into Her” cast member EJ Panganiban commended Eugenio for speaking up, then recalled that Quiroz also attempted to kiss him during his sleep, as per his Twitter post yesterday, Oct. 12.
Both actors did not state a specific show, though Eugenio mentioned the acronym “HIH,” seemingly referring to “He’s into Her.”
Following these accusations by the actors, ABS-CBN Films stressed that it “took appropriate action” in the incident involving Quiroz.
“Contrary to the claims made by Rhys Miguel on [Oct. 11], 2022, ABS-CBN Film Productions Inc. (AFPI) immediately conducted an investigation upon receiving his complaint in December 2020 and swiftly took appropriate action to protect the rights of everyone involved,” it stated. “AFPI takes these matters seriously. The safety, dignity, and privacy of our people are our utmost priority.”
People directly mentioned and alluded to by Eugenio in his video statement are yet to publicly comment on the allegations as of this writing.
Prior to being cast in “He’s into Her,” Eugenio was among the housemates in “Pinoy Big Brother: Otso,” which ran from November 2018 to August 2019. /ra
