In a recent interview with Cebu Daily News, Richard said that he’s been in showbiz for almost 10 years but it is only now that the “alleged son” surfaced.
According to a Sunstar report, the actor indicated there might be people behind the alleged son and such rumors might have been concocted and floated by his political enemies.
“She went live and that’s what she said. So this has all been planned from the start,” the actor said of a former councilor now running as his opponent for congress.
As for his alleged son, Richard said he has never seen or met him
“I have never seen him, met him, talk to him ever since. Just wondering where he took me to be his father,” the Kapuso actor said.
According to a report by the Inquirer, the alleged illegitimate son has filed a petition in court called “compulsory recognition of natural child” or “acknowledgment of paternity and affiliation” against Richard.
