I noticed that when I watched TFC and wondered about that. Boy Abunda, having been one of the SCQ judges,knows Dara very well and in fact has mentioned many times with fondness that she looks for him when she visits Manila. I feel the omission is deliberate in that there must be a rule that he is not allowed to mention her name in the show broadcast ( I am speculating they would need YGE permission first for that) .

He didn’t even mention Dara, even though they showed a picture with her in it!
