Francis Magalona’s publicist, Pilar Mateo, said that there was no chance for Pia Magalona to spend her time addressing the revelation made by Abegail Rait.

In an interview, Pilar, who worked for the Magalona family for many years, said that she already expected Pia to keep mum on the issue.

According to her, it was really Pia’s personality not to speak on private matters, especially if it was about her family.

“Kilala ko si Pia, hindi niya papansinin ‘yung ganyang mga bagay lalo na if it concerns her family. Pia is a very feisty woman at saka talagang strong ‘yan eh. Strong siya kahit anong mangyari basta poprotektahan niya ang pamilya niya no matter what,” she said.

She also praised Pia for taking care of Francis.

“Si Francis kasi parang bata ‘yan so talagang inaalagaan siya ni Pia, lahat kami nag-aalaga sa kanya. Spoiled siya kay Pia. Very generous ‘yung couple na ‘yan,” she also said.

Pia’s silence on the issue was already noticed by the netizen, but most of them believed that she was already aware of Abegail’s existence for a long time.

It can be recalled that after 14 years after Francis’ passing, Abegail suddenly appeared in public and proclaimed herself as the former partner of the master rapper.

“For 15 years nanahimik ako, I didn’t say anything about me and my daughter. Siguro naman ito na lang ‘yung karapatan na pwede kong magawa para sa kanya (anak ko),” said Abegail.

“Kasi hindi naman ako nagsalita. I know people will judge me, but we exist. What we have is real… Mahal niya kami, and that’s a fact,” she added.

The mother of the newly drafted PBA player Ricci Rivero talked for the first time about the failed relationship of her son with actress Andrea Brillantes.

Through her social media post, Abigail Uy-Rivero made it clear that Andrea and Ricci didn’t commit cheating during their romance.

However, she said the two were getting toxic, so ‘God’ ended it already.

“Walang niloko at walang niloko,” said Mrs. Rivero. “Sadyang hindi lang sila ang gustong magkatuluyan ng tadhana… Have you ever wondered why some relationships work out while others don’t? It can be annoying when you want to be with someone, especially when you know you gave your ALL, but it just doesn’t seem to be working out,” 

“God will end a relationship if it’s TOXIC. If you’re in a toxic environment, you do not need to ‘get used to it for a long time’ or ‘just get over it.’ God wants you to remove yourself from these situations. God will even help you set up an unthinkable escape… Just learn to LISTEN!

“The truth is, if it’s meant to be, it will happen. When God wants you with someone, He will make it happen. Meanwhile, A healthy relationship is one in which there is oneness of goals, purpose, VALUES & BELIEFS. Keep your relationship healthy by LISTENING, talking, accepting, managing conflict, making time for each other and praying together,” she stated.

Meanwhile, some netizens were not convinced by the explanation made by Mrs. Rivero, saying that it would be expected for her to shield her own son.

“Syempre anak mo yan kaya talagang tama yan,” netizen Janet said.

Ricci was currently in a relationship with Leren Bautista.

Netizens couldn’t hide their suspicions about the real intention of former flight attendant Abegail Rait to sell the jersey of her alleged former partner Francis Magalona and to reveal her controversial story to the public.

It can be recalled that Abegail sold Francis’ signed jersey for P500,000 on ‘Pinoy Pawnstars’ and shared the story of her alleged relationship with the former Eat Bulaga host, which resulted in one child.

However, Abegail started to be questioned by netizens after it was revealed that she was running for this year’s Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections.

On social media, several netizens criticized Abegail for allegedly using her story to gain the country’s attention and win votes.

The former publicist of Francis Magalona gave her opinion on the claims made by Abegail Rait about her alleged relationship with the ‘Master Rapper.’

In an interview with Abante, Pilar Mateo said that people were questioning the intention of Abegail’s revelation about her connection with Francis and her introduction to her child Gaile Francesca.

Pilar suggested that Francesca should also be protected if ever she was a member of the Magalona family and told Abegail that she must avoid trying to build a conflict with Francis’ original family.

“Wag ka na munang makipagbanggaan sa pamilya, so okay nailabas na kayo ‘yung pamilya, na may relasyon kayo ni Francis, nagkaroon kayo ng relasyon, nagkaroon kayo ng anak, edi ayan inilabas mo na, ano pa ba after that, ano bang gusto mong mangyari? Kasi maapektuhan rin ‘yung anak mo,” said Pilar.

She also believed that it would be ineffective if Abegail planned to use the publicity it received from the netizens as its ticket to showbiz.

Pilar also revealed that the Magalona family was disappointed by Abegail’s claims.

“Ang kailangan sigurong paigtingin nilang mag-ina ay ayusin nila ang buhay nila, wag niyong banggain ang pamilya [Magalona],” she stated.

“Kasi ‘yung pamilya ni Francis, nagsasalita na at makikita mo na masama ang loob nila, which is karapatan nila ‘yun na sumama ang loob nila dahil nagugulat sila. Hayaan na muna sila, hayaan na muna ‘yung mga bata,” she added.

Netizens couldn’t hide their confusion because of inconsistent claims made by former producer and showbiz personality Robby Tarroza.

Several days ago, Robby went viral on social media after he claimed that there was no reason for Pia Magalona, the partner of late rapper Francis M. to complain about the revelation made by Abegail Rait because they were not married in the first place.

“WALA KASI TAYONG DIVORCE SA PILIPINAS!!!! But even with kasal, ang tanong, WAS KIKO MARRIED TO PIA???! No, she was married to another guy with last name Lim and they had a son, Niccolo and daughter Unna, Who Many of us knew this! Pia huwag ka magpabiktima! grabe ka! No one broke up your marriage dear! You were never married in the Philippines!” said Robby in his Facebook post.

Robby deleted the said post and made another response to the photo published by the former publicist of Francis, Pilar Mateo, who showed the wedding between the master rapper and Pia.

“Uulitin ko po, di sila kasal sa Pilipinas dahil may asawa na si Pia. Fernando ang apelyido nun. In short, kabit si Kiko sa papel,” Robby said.

However, netizens noticed conflicting statements made by Robby.

At first, Robby said that the last name of Pia’s alleged first husband was Lim, and now he was saying that it was Fernando.

They also noticed that Robby was sharing conspiracy posts on his social media page, sparking the suspicion that the former producer had only invented his story for unknown reasons.

As of writing Pia has yet to give any statement on the issue.

Veteran actor PJ Abellana said he didn’t believe the rumors that his son-in-law, Tom Rodriguez, was hiding his true identity.

In an interview, PJ addressed the rumors about the possibility that Tom was ‘gay’ and his wife Carla Abellana only discovered it when they were married already.

According to the veteran actor, there was no way for Carla not to discover it before exchanging vows with Tom since the two had a relationship for more than seven years.

“Kung may posibilidad ang isyu na ‘yan, e, sa tingin ng lahat hindi mapapansin ‘yan ng anak ko more than 7 years na relasyon nila. Sa tingin ninyo hindi ba masisilip o malalaman o madidiskubre ng anak ko ‘yan?” said PJ.

“Hindi ako naniniwala umabot sila sa kasalan kung may gender isyu, hindi ‘yan aabot sa kasalan,”  he added.

Carla refused to disclose the real reason behind her separation from Tom.

However, she made several hints about the cause of their uncoupling, saying that she felt ‘betrayed’ and ‘disrespected.’

Meanwhile, Tom denied that he was having a relationship with another man.

“A lot of the best people… most of the best people I know happen to be of that persuasion. Happen to be gay. Best people I’ve known. So, kung ayun lang inaano, hindi insulto para sa akin yun,” said Tom.

Actor JM de Guzman was saddened by the comments he received from the netizens after gaining some weight.

In his social media post, JM showed an update about his current looks, but instead of receiving positive replies, he became a subject of mockery by netizens.

“Chubby naman this boy,” said a netizen.

“Tumaba na talaga sya baka tumigil na din,” another netizen commented.

“Bat parang may mali? Parang may stiff neck. JM tumaba,” the third netizen remarked.

JM was visibly unhappy with the comments he received and expressed dismay over the said comments.

“Masakit kayo magsalita,” he said.

He even asked the netizens to stop shaming his body.

Meanwhile, JM received some messages of comfort from his fans.

“Kahit ano mangyari andito lang kmi mga fans mo ma’s marmi kami nag mamahal sayo kesa mga tao nega wala magawa sa buhay.. Love you always idol JM,” netizen Nanette said.

“Ok lang na tumaba, hindi naman apektado yung galing niya sa pag arte. And kung nagawa niya mag bago with his will power, for sure kaya rin niya bumalik sa dating kisig niya anytime. Idol, your still one of the best actor for me,” netizen Cid commented.

Veteran columnist and talent manager Lolit Solis shared an update about her current health status.

Through her Instagram, Lolit described her weakness since being diagnosed with an undisclosed condition that forced her to undergo dialysis.

Lolit said she couldn’t go out anymore because of her current state as a 77-year-old.

However, she thanked her doctors because she still survived some health problems in the past weeks.

“Salve talagang siguro hindi na kaya ng katawan ko rumampa masyado. Talagang feel ko na iyon weakness sa body ng isang 77 years old woman. Feeling lola na talaga, hah hah. Tapos salamat sa mga prayers at medical genius grabe pa ang tumamang pneumonia sa akin. Bongga nga na nalagpasan ko lahat kahit hangga ngayon talagang hina parin katawan ko,” she said.

She also thanked Senator Bong Revilla for shouldering her medical expenses.

“Ayaw ko na nga halos tumayo sa kama at lagi na lang nakahiga. Kahit miss ko mga lunch natin nila PatP talagang hindi ko kaya. Bongga nga na meron akong tagabayad sa hospital anytime , ang aking Bongbong Bong,” she said.

The talent manager was praying that she would not be brought to the hospital anymore as it affected her mental health badly.
