Ara Mina is said to be upset about the way her current 'home' studio has handled the controversies she's been involved in.

Ara rues the fact that GMA 7 hasn't necessarily given her the protection from the nasty rumours alleging she's been receiving 'gifts' from boxing world champion Manny Pacquiao.

The sexy actress also felt insulted when she was offered a mother role in an upcoming TV series, when she's only a few years older than the actor who will play her child.

Add this to her alleged dissatisfaction that she hasn't been getting enough projects from her home network, prompting her to accept freelance hosting jobs with the rival network.

So far, Ara has denied all and said her loyalty is with her home studio.
