Compiled by ALLISON LAIACTORS Pekin Ibrahim and Mona Allen were at the centre of heated online discussion after clips from a recent gathering began circulating on social media, prompting ­speculation that the couple had participated in a Christmas-themed event. In the footage, Pekin and Mona are seen wearing red and white hats commonly associated with Santa Claus and taking part in an apparent gift exchange, a practice often linked to Christmas festivities, Kosmo! Others defended the pair, suggesting the gathering may have been a casual get-together rather than an endorsement of any ­religious observance. Neither Pekin nor Mona has issued an official statement regarding the incident. They also did not share the circulating footage or related images on their social media accounts, posting only unrelated content showing gifts they received from friends.
