Michelle Dee recently shared on her Instagram Stories that her car had been stolen but was recently retrieved. The actress and beauty queen didn’t hold back in expressing her disappointment over the situation.

“It’s honestly so unfortunate when you trust, forgive, and build people up only for them to go behind you and prioritize their own personal agendas,” Michelle wrote, explaining that a creative she once worked with and his girlfriend admitted responsibility for the theft. The two had lived in one of her apartments in Manila, making the betrayal even more personal.

While Michelle didn’t name the individuals involved, she hinted that her long-time supporters could likely piece together who they are. For now, she’s handling things privately, but she added a stern warning: “If my deliverables, properties that are under their possession, and materials that are under signed valued storage aren’t returned, then my hand will be forced to take their names and this story to the press.”

It’s clear that Michelle is choosing to handle the situation with grace and professionalism, but she’s also drawing a line. As she said herself, let’s hope these individuals choose to do the right thing and return what’s rightfully hers.
