Grace Lee asks journalist for public apology over 'married to President' report


MANILA, Philippines -- Entertainment host and radio jock Grace Lee has demanded a public apology from veteran journalist Ellen Tordesillas over the latter's article published on Vera Files stating that the Korean celebrity sees herself marrying President Benigno Aquino III.

In her Twitter account, an infuriated Lee (@gracelee899) called Tordesillas's story "very false and vile."

"I think journalist Ellen Tordesillas need to formally apologize to the public for a very false and vile article!!" she tweeted past 11 a.m. Monday.

Lee also said she was "deeply offended" that Tordesillas would write what she called an "article of lies to sensationalize one's private life."

"I have never said anything remotely close to what her write-up says I did. I believe the public deserves an apology from her," Lee said.

In her Vera Files story dated February 13, Tordesillas wrote that in conversation between Lee and Mo Twister in the radio show “Good Times in the Morning” last week, Lee was asked how long her relationship with Aquino will last. She answered, "the full length.”

Lee also requested that Tordesillas name her source "who claims to have spoken to me regarding the PSG issue as this is not to be taken lightly."

Tordesillas quoted a "TV host" who claimed to have spoken with Lee saying that the President had offered to provide her security from the Presidential Security Group.
