Alam ng manager ni Jennylyn Mercado na si Katrina Aguila ang mga pinagdaanan at sakripisyo ng aktres matapos nitong isilang ang panganay na anak nila ni Patrick Garcia na si Alex Jazz.

Sa Facebook (FB) post ni Katrina, ikinuwento niya kung gaano nagsikap si Jennylyn para maitaguyod si Jazz at ang kanilang pamilya.

Aniya, “A lot of you don’t know this, but a month after giving birth, Jennylyn immediately went back to work.

“She was desperate to earn money for Jazz and her family that she even flew to the States (US) to find work as a singer at different restaurants.

“I was a teenager then, but I remember how hard she worked to provide a stable future for Jazz. She was a single mother, you can see that she was having a hard time, but she persevered. She is that strong of a person.”

Ayon pa kay Katrina, marami rin siyang natutunan sa katatagan ni Jennylyn, na nakaranas din ng mga pagsubok noong bata pa lamang.

Aniya, “Since she was a little girl, she already experienced so many hardships, but despite all that, she was able to survive and be a better person. She deserves all the love in the world. We love you, Jen.”

Matagal nang magkakilala sina Katrina at Jennylyn, at ayon sa manager, malaki ang naging bahagi ng aktres sa kanilang buhay.

Aniya, “Si Jen ang unang artista na nagtiwala sa ‘kin. ‘Di n’ya kami iniwan ni Becky Aguila through all our ups and downs.

“‘Ate’ ang tawag ko sa kanya noon. At present, ‘di na kasi ang weird na manager ako ngayon tapos may ‘ate’ pa rin.

“She guided me throughout my teenage years and became my protector. She showed me that love shouldn’t be taken for granted, that it is supposed to be shared to those people who matter.

“To be strong despite all the problems that lay ahead. The learnings I got from her, was able to help shape the person I am today. That is why she is and will always be my ate. Love you Ate Jen, From your Kittykat.”

Nagsalita si Katrina dahil sa mga naging pahayag ni Patrick Garcia sa vlog ni Ogie Diaz kung anong klaseng ina ang aktres.

Naging isyu kasi noon na may mga lumabas na balitang hindi raw kay Patrick ang ipinagbubuntis ni Jennylyn that time.

Nainterbyu si Patrick at natanong sa hypothetical question na ano ang gagawin niya sakaling hindi pala siya ang tatay ng ipinagbubuntis ni Jennylyn.

Pahayag ng aktor, “No, wala akong sinasabing ‘di sa ‘kin. I just answered the question na ano’ng gagawin ko kung hindi sa ‘kin (Jazz). Hypothetical lang, pero wala akong sinasabi na it’s not mine.

“Sa mga bashers na bina-bash ako, they hate me so much because they’re saying na iniwanan ko si Jenn. No, that’s not true! ‘Di ko iniwanan si Jenn. And sa ibang mga bashers na nagsasabi na I was never there for Jenn sa pregnancy n’ya, that's true. I was never there for Jenn during her pregnancy, not because I didn’t want to be there, but because she didn’t want me to be there.”

Diin nga ni Patrick, “This is the story I’ve been holding for 18 years. But until this day, the words of Jenn are haunting me, my family, my daughter. People are hating us too much and I think it's unfair.”

Well, ano nga kaya ang totoo? Magsasalita pa kaya si Jennylyn kung ano nga ba ang dahilan kung bakit hindi present noon si Patrick bilang ama sa kanilang anak? 

Bukas ang BULGAR sa pahayag ng aktres.
