Former child star Niño Mulach addressed the criticism his 82-year-old father received regarding his relationship with a 30-year-old woman.
Through his Facebook page, Niño admitted that he was surprised that his father, Alex Mulach’s love story with his partner Mae Fortaleza went viral and received mixed reactions from the netizens.
He also said that people should be happy that two people love each other regardless of their age gap.
“Dear bashers… di ba kayo natutuwa na may 2 tao na nagmamahalan? Kami nga mga kamag-anak eh natutuwa para sa kanila eh. Di naman kayo apektado di ba? Good vibes lang!” said Niño
“Malas sa buhay when u talk bad about other people u dont know. Be happy guys!” he added.
According to him, Mae was a big help to their family as she was the one who took care of Alex.
“Isa pa hindi naman namin magagawa ung alagang ginagawa nya sa Daddy ko eh. This is the happiest I have seen my dad. Bigat sa buhay pag puro ka negahan!” he stated.
Fans expressed their support for the Mulach family, saying that people should stop judging Alex.
“This has become a norm sa social media nowadays. I can see your last few posts halatang batang 80s and 90s tayo. Di tayo sanay sa ganyan. Disrespect thru comments pero di nila kaya sabihin ng harapan. They said lucky ang batch nyo kasi walang ganyan noon. Now lahat ng artista pati athletes they live with that daily na. Don’t be stressed too much. We all know the truth naman,” netizen Mark said.
“I’m a good friend of Alex Mullach and seeing Alex happy on his new girlfriend I feel more happy whatever age gap it is as long they are both in love to each other. Let the good vibes roll,” netizen Jesse remarked.
