Rey "PJ" Abellana on Tuesday clarified his previous statement on the relationship of his daughter Carla Abellana and son-in-law Tom Rodriguez wherein he revealed that a "one-night-stand" was involved in the issue.
Last week, Abellana addressed the rumors about the couple’s supposed breakup in his interview with columnist Cristy Fermin on her radio program “Cristy Ferminute."
"Honestly speaking, hindi po natin mako-consider na third party. Kasi po ang pangyayari one-night stand,” he told Fermin
However, the Abellana patriarch retreated from this statement, saying he made a mistake.
"At first, may nakarating po at nalaman ni Carla na may issue na one night stand na involved si Tom. Si Tom naman was able to explain kay Carla na wala naman din pong katotohanan po ito at naiwasan naman din niya na mangyari ’yon. So wala pong natuloy na one night stand, according to Tom’s side," he explained.
"’Yun po ang scenario ng issue na one night stand. Napa-short cut lang po, napa-abrupt lang po pagkasabi ko kay Nanay Cristy [Fermin] na napag-isipan nang masama," he added.
Rey also revealed that after his interview aired, Carla texted him.
"She was mad, she was questioning me why I came up that way? Of course, I explained it to her right away and after my explanation, explaining my side, hindi na naman din siya nag-message uli," he said.
In the end, the actor advised the couple to open their communication lines to fix their relationship problems.
“Importante na may communication silang dalawa, i-work out na nila ’yan, so much the better na ma-normalize na ulit sila at maipatuloy na nila ang buhay mag-asawa nila,” he said.
Speculations about Carla’s supposed split with Rodriguez circulated last January when eagle-eyed fans noticed that the two unfollowed and eventually followed each other again on Instagram.
The couple got married in 2021.
