It is confirmed that Angel Locsin is indeed moving to ABS-CBN.

This move has gotten a lot of strong reactions not only from people in the industry but from the viewing public as well, since it involves one of the most basic Filipino values – utang na loob. Angel leaves GMA-7, which groomed her to stardom, right after her contract expires, to move to its main rival. What makes it even more touchy is how Angel and her manager Becky Aguila reportedly went behind the backs of GMA-7 executives instead of just coming clean.

7. RELATIONSHIPS CAN BE BROKEN BY THE SMALLEST OF THINGS – Meaning, no one may never know the real reason why Angel decided to move. Contracts bind people, and relationships are built on a lot of things. Something could have happened, something could have been said, something relevant enough for Angel to decide she is better off in another place.

Based on this last reason, no one can and should judge Angel. She has her own reasons, and after all has been said and done, only she will bear the fruits, or consequences, of her decision.

If there is something that may be commented on, it will be how Angel and Becky handled this move. Again, people have different stories of what really happened, but the bottom line, she should have been as best sincere and honest in dealing with her bosses in GMA-7. She should have made sure no bad feelings will be unnecessarily generated. She at least owed them that.

But, as always, life moves on for everyone. Iza Calzado and Marian Rivera are now the top prospects in GMA-7, and Angel, as mentioned, will be seen with new people and in new projects in her new station. And being realistic, this will not be the last time a major star will jump ship. It has happened before, it will happen again.
