On Wed, Jan 13, On The Wings of Love issued a statement to apologize for their use of the Philippine National Police’s uniform on Monday night’s episode. It also said the show had no intention to disrespect the sanctity of the uniform.
The episode in question featured Clark (James Reid), wearing a PNP uniform, performing a sexy dance number during the bridal shower of his wife Leah (Nadine Lustre).
It quickly earned the ire of the Philippine National Police. The PNP-Philippine Community Relations Group tweeted their reaction immediately, saying “sana lang po lahat ng inilalabas sa TV ay nirereview ng maayos tulad ng paggamit ng tama sa uniporme. May batas po tyo diyan,” it said.
Below is the full statement from OTWOL:
“On the Wings of Love” would like to apologize for a short scene that aired last Monday (January 11), which unfortunately showed the main character Clark dancing as a policeman for Leah in her bridal shower. The program has called the attention of its production team and assures the public that there was no intention to disrespect the sanctity of the Philippine National Police (PNP) uniform. We do not want to jeopardize our good relations with the PNP and will make sure that it will not happen again.
