PATRICK GARCIA BREAKS SILENCE ON PAST WITH JENNYLYN MERCADO

Patrick Garcia has spoken publicly about his past relationship with Jennylyn Mercado and the events surrounding her pregnancy 18 years ago.

In an interview with Ogie Diaz, Patrick denied claims that he abandoned Jennylyn, saying he was not present during her pregnancy because, according to his account, she did not want him to be involved at the time.

He also clarified that his family had been supportive of Jennylyn after learning about the pregnancy. Patrick said his family defended him over the years while he chose to remain silent, which he said also led to them receiving criticism online.

Patrick explained that he decided to share his side after his daughter encouraged him to speak up amid the continued backlash against him and his family.
