Actor Paolo Contis admitted in an interview with Boy Abunda that he was not sending financial support to his daughter to his ex-partner Lian Paz.
It can be recalled that Lian Paz revealed in 2018 that Paolo didn’t send child support to their children when they got separated.
“Kasi siyempre, noong naghiwalay kami, wala akong trabaho. As in, zero talaga. So, sinunod ko siya. Pero nung sinunod ko siya, akala ko, okay. Pero mas maganda na idinaan ko na sa lawyer pala,” Lian said.
Paolo confirmed the accusations of Lian, calling his actions a mistake.
However, he made it clear that he was already supporting all his children including his daughter to his other ex-partner LJ Reyes.
“It’s a mistake na nasimulan ko ever since before na hindi ako nakapagbigay. But ever since na nagtrabaho ako ng maayos, unti-unti akong naglalagay ng account para kay Xonia, kay Xylene, pati kay Summer.” he stated.
He also became emotional while dedicating a message to Lian and to the latter’s new partner John Cabahug.
According to him, he was lucky that John treated his children as his own.
“I would like to take this opportunity to tell Lian and John, thank you for doing a great job sa mga bata. Dun suwerte ako kasi mabait ‘yung John eh.” he said.
As of writing Lian has yet to give a response to Paolo’s interview.
It can be recalled that the two officially separated in 2012.
Lian cited that the reason behind their separation was related to financial problems and a third-party.
