CHICAGO— Apple David is a star. Galactic, luminescent. Siri got nothing on her.
With over 1.1 million social media followers, the PBA courtside reporter is a giant TV personality.
Bubbly, wholesome as a ray of sunshine.
READ Apple David hits back at critics of relationship with Letran player Gammad
Usually the one delivering the news, David was the headline on Monday, the camera pointed at her.
Unlike in her TV gig, she was not as pleasant on the TikTok video. She was annoyed, angry.
After her relationship with Letran guard Chris Gammad went public, netizens called out their age difference.
SHE’S 33. HE’S 18.
And the keyboard warriors were quick to disperse disparaging, hateful words.
I get it, the union may not necessarily be viewed as a paragon of virtue, but it’s not illegal, either.
May-December romances are not for all but it clicks for some.
Love is a mystery best described in the timeless classic I Can’t Say Goodbye To You by Helen Reddy.
“Who knows why we choose when we choose the ones we love. Who knows why we do the things we do when we’re in love.”
Either way, what’s cooking between Apple and Chris are nobody’s business but theirs.
POWER OF LOVE.
The assault on their love life is predictable, a mirror of society’s double standard.
If an older man has a younger partner clinging in his arms, he’s admired as a cool cat.
But if a more mature woman cuddles a young stud, she’s frowned upon as a cougar, a feline with a dangerous meow.
Bite me.
Don’t back down, Ms. Apple David, push back hard.
Love is always worth fighting for.
