Repost: Richard Yap Addresses Issue of Having an 'Illegitimate Child'

Actor-turned-politician Richard Yap has recently addressed the issue that he had a child born out of wedlock.

In an interview with Cebu Daily News, the 54-year-old star said in Bisaya: “I’ve been in show business for ten years and I still have a child. As you can see that person is not from Cebu. He doesn’t know how to speak Bisaya. Why is he filing in Cebu? Who is behind that?”

According to Richard, a certain candidate went live on social media, who claimed to have found his alleged “long-lost child.”

“She went live and that’s what she said. So this has all been planned from the start,” Richard was quoted to have said.

“I have never seen him, met him, talk to him ever since. Just wondering where he took me to be his father.”

Apparently, Prisca Niña Mabati cleared her name that she’s behind the “illegitimate son’s” petition for “compulsory recognition of natural child” or “acknowledgment of paternity and affiliation” at Regional Trial Court in Cebu City last Oct. 28.

Note that a certain Joshua Paolo Jensen from Bacoor, Cavite related that Richard has been ignoring his claim, which he started doing when he was in high school.

“Nag-contact ako through Facebook, social accounts, sa wife niya, sa anak niya. Wala po. Blinock lang nila ako. Matagal ko na siyang hinahanap,” Joshua said.

“Nagpunta na rin ako ng ABS-CBN kasama ng mga lola ko at mommy ko, kaso lagi sinasabi out of town siya.”

Jensen confidently said he’s willing to undergo a DNA test to prove he’s saying the truth.

Meanwhile, in an article published on PEP.ph, Richard released another statement through his lawyer, Joahna Paula Domingo of Domingo Garcia Lumapas Law

It read: “It has come to the attention of our client, Mr. Richard Yap that a particular person purports to be his son. We have yet to receive an official copy of his Petition. Mr. Yap is certain that it would indubitably be unfounded. For now, Mr. Yap assures the public and his supporters that there is no truth to such claim and that, he places his confidence in our justice system in threshing out the TRUTH in the days to come.”

  2. Mali translation nito dun sa sinabi niya, “I’ve been in show business for ten years and I still have a child.” Sabi nya, “Ang tagal na raw nya sa showbiz pero ngayon lang daw sya nakarinig na may ibang anak pala sya.”
    Anyway, pa-DNA na lang kayo at nang matapos na yan unless sure talaga na wala syang naging karelasyon other than his wife. 24 years old daw sya, eh yung Ashley 25 years old na eh. So naging kabit nanay nya? Nagkakilala raw sa work. Sana magmention kung anong work to kasi pagkakaalam ko into businesses si Richard Yap. So empleyado nanay nya?

    1. He said he is sure that it is impossible na anak niya yun. Maybe he is confident to say that kasi wala siyang ibang nakarelasyon that time other than his wife or at least, walang nangyari sa kanila o wala siyang naging ugnayan at all nung sinasabing nanay ng bata.

    2. Salamat at mag nag-point out rin ng wrong translation. Naiilang ako sa mga articles na nababasa ko. LOL!

      Delete
    3. 01:16, yun nga ang point ko. So kabit nanay nya? Baka di nya alam ilang taon na yung panganay, ayan parang nag-overlap tuloy. Siguro kung let’s say older sya kay Ash baka mas kapani-paniwala pa. Yung naglabas nito isang politician lang din eh. Ngayon pa talaga ha.

    4. He was a corporate employee before or during nagmodel siya for a fastfood advertisement.

  3. Alam ko ang mga Chinese gustong gusto magkaanak na lalaki kaya para mahirap paniwalaan na hindi niya kikilalanin ito kung nagkarelasyon kuno ang ina kay Richard.

    1. Agree. And di ba yung father ni Richard gustong gusto ng apo na lalake from him kasi tagadala ng surname? Matagal bago nasundan ng lalake yung panganay na babae ni Richard.

    2. You have a point. I also think hindi niya anak ito.

  4. Kung hindi totoo bakit ayaw magpa dna? At saka, bakit kc tumakbo ka pa eh hindi ka na nga nakatira sa cebu. Ayan tuloy nahalungkat ang baho mo.

    1. DNA kasi could mean acknowledgment of possibility na siya ang father. I think yan ang payo nung abogado. Also, medyo nakakatakot rin magpa-DNA if politically motivated plot lang ito kasi the powerful people behind this if ever nga pakana lang ito ng kalaban, could turn results in their favor. Mas mahirap nang icontest ang positive DNA result.

    2. That’s the trade off ng pagsali sa politics- say goodbye to your peaceful life. It does not mean though na totoo ang paratang sa kanya. Medyo duda rin ako sa moves nung Joshua.

    4. 1:29 aysus! Excuses hahaha send their DNA sa Singapore para sure mura lang, ganyan ginawa sa akin

    1. Actually, hindi sila magkamukha. Sa recent photos nung bata, parang pilit niyang ginagaya ang pose ni Richard and sinasadya nyang mas paliitin maya niya.

    2. Baka kasi na-prime na lang tayo ng balita but parang looking closely, hindi naman. I remember I thought rin na yung anak ni Andi kamuhka ni Albie kasi siya yung tinuturong father but it turns out kay Jake pala.

    3. Kahit naman fake anak lang ito halimbawa, syempre may hawig sa kanya ang hahanapin ng kalaban to claim as his son.

    4. Hindi magkamukha. Check mo pics. Oo singkit siya pero parang alsado and dark yung eyes.

    3. Samedt! Tsaka sa mga nagsasabing pa-DNA test nalang kasi, pag ganyan ng ganyan lahat nalang nag mag claclaim pa-DNA agad.. Precedent ito.. If he knows na talagang walang ano mang possibility, why mag pa DNA.. Unlike Piolo kay Iñigo, he knows na probably anak nga nya and DNA test is to make sure.. Eh kung sure nga sya na wala syang anak sa labas..

      Delete
    4. Form what I know, Piolo never disclaimed Iñigo. And he knew he's the father at the very beginning.

      Delete
    5. 9:37 never nag deny si piolo about inigo
      Never sya nag deny na wala sya g anak
      They just kept it private

  7. Hindi si Richard Yap ang tatay niyan sus. I hope makarating kina Mr. Yap ang totoo at panigan sila ng korte.

    1. Seriously, if may alam ka, message mo si Mr. Yap. Kung totoong ploy lang ito ng kalaban niya, parang di naman deserving siya at ang pamilya niya to be subjected to this. Baka makatulong sa kaso yung alam mo.

    2. Then help Richard Yap if you know something about the person claiming to be his kid.

  8. Madaling sabihin na pa-DNA na lang kung hindi guilty pero if you consult lawyers, they would not advise that you agree to it right away kahit pa super sure ka na lalabas na hindi ikaw ang ama. The same thing happened to a family friend at ito pinayo ng abogado niya. Ang ending, the court declared na walang basehan yung petition pa lang so dismissed yung case and no DNA needed.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Alam ko sinabi niya sa interview way before na mula nung nakilala siya, ang daming lumalapit na nagpapakilalang kamag-anak niya. Yung iba pa nga raw claiming anak ng tatay nya sa labas o di kaya anak nya sa labas but he said he dismissed them kasi sure siyang imposible yun kasi wala siyang nakarelasyon na iba during his marriage. Maybe one of those ang kinuha to file a complaint against him now.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Kaya ako duda is because bakit ngayon lang? Ang tagal na niya sa showbiz at hindi naman ito ang first time na tumakbo siya. Also, bakit hindi nag-file for child support ang nanay ng bata noon kung totoo ito at asan na ba siya?

    ReplyDelete
  11. Parang mas naniniwala ako kay Papa Chen. Maybe sirain ang good family man image niya ang nakitang paraan ng kalaban to tarnish his name. Obviously poitically motivated. Ang dumi talaga ng pulitika. Nagtaka nga ako at ginusto pa nyang pasukin pa yun e ok naman na siya sa businesses and showbiz.

    1. True po pwede naman syang tumulong kahit wala sa politika.

  12. Politically motivated ito, obvious naman. I also don’t think the child is Mr. Yap’s.

    ReplyDelete
  13. If Mr. Yap, knows he has a child out of wedlock at alam niyang posibleng gamitin ito against him, he would have had a settlement with the child lalo pa sa pagpasok niya sa pulitika. Pero kaya siguro walang ganito is because wala talaga siyang anak sa labas. Kung hindi siya naglikot, then he can be sure of this and confidently claim na imposibleng siya ang ama.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Mas pinapansin ng iba yung refusal niya to have a DNA test but I think kailangan ring pansinin that he is so confident in saying imposibleng siya ang ama nung bata. Kung halimbawa kasi alam mong may ginawa kang kalokohan so may tinge of possibility na anak nga niya yung bata, hindi ka magiging matapang sa denial mo and claims mo. But siguro kaya siya matapang kasi super sure siyang hindi siya ang ama.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Parang di naman niya kamukha. Oo chinito rin yung guy but hindi kagaya nung kay Papa Chen. Yung mga anak ni Papa Chen sa wife kuhang kuha mata niya, yung parang hiniwa lang kaya may bukana. Hahaha!

    Dna test lang ang makaka tapos sa issue na yan OR paninira

    Pa dna test na kasi bakit takot?

    1. If I were him, matatakot akong manipulahin ng kalaban ang resulta. Nasa kapangyarihan ang kalaban niya. So agree ako sa kanya na hindi agad ako papayag sa DNA and if ever we would be required by the court to do it, dapat klaro and fair ang terms.

  17. Tiningnan ko yung itsura nitong Joshua at yung nanay niya. Hindi niya kamukha si Richard Yap pero di rin niya kamukha nanay niya. So saan galing yung iba niyang features? Singkit rin naman si Joshua but parang maga yung mata di tulad nung kay Richard. Sobrang kapal rin ng kilay niya e both Richard and the mother do not have such thick eyebrows.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Bakit parang mas mukhang Hapon yung Joshua kesa Chinese? LOL!

  19. I hope this is not the case na pinaniwala yung bata na this certain person is your father then it turns out di pala. It happened to my bestfriend. Yung inakala niya all his life na tatay niya na hinabol-habol niya, tinuro lang pala ng nanay niya kasi may kaya.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Nakakaduda. Sa tagal ni Papa Chen sa showbiz and sa pulitika, bakit nga ngayon lang may lumabas na ganyan?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Sa pulitika, lahat ng baho mo lalabas. Kung sakali namang wala kang bahong matindi, gagawan ka ng kasinungalingan ng kalaban for sure.

  22. sa KMJS sila magpa DNA.

  23. May iconsistency sa sinasabi nung alleged son. He said his mother found out pregnant siya e 1996 at nagpapa-ultrasound sila ni Richard that time which also happens to be the last time they saw each other. Joshua was born October 1997 so may mali.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Tingin ko idedeny ng korte yung petition ng bata. Mahina ang ebidensya niya. Well, kung paninira lang ito, yun lang naman talaga habol ng kalaban so mission accomplished sila.

  25. Doesnt matter if its politically motivated or what, Richard isnt a winnable candidate here, neither is Mabatid. Ingay nyo d naman mananalo.

  26. Mr Richard Yap
    Your character bespeak your personality
    Face your battles and fears squarely
    Yes to DNA test
    Prove them wrong
    This is the prize of being famous
    Be safe and stay well
    May the guidance of our merciful Savior lead you to right decision
    God bless!

  27. I think this is a political tactic of the opponent, just to tarnish the image of Richard Yap. If he is truely a son of Richard Yap, I think he can't allow to be used by a politician just to distroy the image of His father just in time of the election. You are correct Mr Yap just in trust everything to your lawyer.

  28. kidding aside...bat di ka mgAgree sa DNA test kung talagang kampante ka na di mo sya anak. di na ito about politics...it is about being a man and responsible father. e kung negative e di panalo ka db. e paano kung positive?

    1. Itatamper ang resulta ng dna test gaya sa mga palabas sa tv. Kidding aside, kung sobrang powerful kalaban hindi malayong mangyari yun. Pa dna niya in secret.

  29. KMJS is the key. #DNA

    ReplyDelete
  30. People, stop suggesting KMJS for DNA. May mas proper forum to address issues at hand which is sa court. Kapag walang merit ang petition, no need for a DNA test. Kung magpapa-DNA kasi agad e baka mamaya kung ulanin ng claimants na nagsasabing anak niya, pano yun? Kailangan muna to establish na may chance ngang siya ang ama through evidences ng petitioner. Also, tuso ang mga kalaban niya sa politika so kayang-kaya nilang itamper ang DNA results. If Richard is sure na imposibleng maging anak niya yung bata but his opponent is daring him to do a DNA test, nakakatakot nga naman yun kasi anong plano niyo considering sure naman akong di akin yan, di ba?
