Celebrity news this week after the Nivea celebrity Challenge in Davao, that Alex allegedly slapped her ex-boyfriend Jeremy Marquez three times in the face. Alex denies the issue, that she was just demonstrating a "slapping" scene/story to Jeremy that time. Unfortunately, the scene was caught on tape, much to the chagrin of both Alex and Jeremy. Onlookers read the"slapping" incident as a lovers' quarrel. Nobody slapped anybody—if by slapping is meant Alex hit Jeremy on the face in anger.
