Ryan Garcia claims that his ’emotional clip’ was shortened to make it look different
Ryan Garcia recently addressed the misconceptions surrounding a particularly emotional clip circulating online. On his X account, he clarified the tears shed were an expression of his deep religious fervor, not mental health concerns. “Praise Jesus, those who know the Holy Spirit will make a grown man cry.

This statement also reflects Garcia’s attempt to set the record straight, reinforcing his connection to his faith over unfounded speculations.
