It all started as a blind item. Then last Tuesday, June 28, Showbiznest put a name on the personality involved in it. And on last night's TV Partol's newscast, Jacklyn Jose confirmed that her daughter Andi Eigenmann is 18 weeks and two days pregnant.
"I just want to tell everyone that, yes, it's true. My daughter is pregnant. Hindi madali pero kailangan kong tanggapin." a tearful Jaclyn Jose admits.
"She decided to keep the baby and naging proud naman ako sa anak ko. Mahal namin yan eh. Mahal ng pamilya ko si Andi." she added.
Jaclyn also asked the public not to judge her daughter and likewise hopes that everyone will understand Andi's current situation.
"Kung may nagawang pagkakamali ang anak ko, hindi ko sinasabing tama, wag na lang husgahan, Bigyan niyo rin siya ng pagkakataon tutal buhay naman yan at kami na ang bahalang family."
Jacklyn, however, refused to reveal the name of the culprit.
"First boyfriend niya. Wala na sila 'nun. Iniwanan siya nung nabuntis siya. I don't want to talk about him anymore. Wala akong hinihingi sa kanila ni ayaw ko sila makita," Jaclyn said firmly.
Many are speculating that it is Jake Ejercito, son of ex-President Joseph Estrada with former actress Laarni Enriquez, who impregnant the 21-year-old Kapamilya star. But Jake is quick to denied the rumor.
On his twitter account, he said that he is not the father of Andi’s unborn baby nor Andi's first boyfriend.
"I'd just like to ask everyone not to jump into conclusions and misinterpret what has been said. I am not Andi's first boyfriend. Let us just respect and pray for her, her baby, and family," he said.
