‘It’s Showtime’ dancer Stephen “Stephanie” Robles became popular when Vice Ganda introduced her to the said show.
She revealed on a ‘Tonight with Boy Abunda” interview that she had not yet seen her biological father in person. “Hindi ko pa po siya nakikita, Tito Boy,”she said.
If given the chance to meet her long-lost American father, she would like to ask and clarify the underlying reason for his absence.
“Hindi po malinaw e. (Ang sabi lang) pagkapanganak sa akin ng mama ko, hanggang sa mag-nine months ako, umalis na yung papa ko,”she narrated.
Fortunately, she was able to contact her father with the help of a friend.
“Nakausap ko na through phone. Sobrang saya ko po nun. Saka naiyak din po ako nung first time ko sya makausap,”she narrated.
Overwhelmed by the event, she didn’t manage to ask the reason why he left the family.

“Ang sa akin kasi nauna yung kasiyahan ko nun, Tito Boy e. Parang hindi naging importante sa akin yung mga tanong,”she said.
Through that conversation, her father apologized to her for his shortcomings and her mother was glad over what had happened. In that moment, she uttered her only wish.
“Magkita kami ng papa ko.”
