Showbiz columnist Cristy Fermin is weighing the option of legal action against John Soberano, the father of actress Liza Soberano, following his use of offensive language against Fermin and Ogie Diaz.
In the latest episode of ‘Showbiz Now Na,’ Cristy engaged in a discussion with Romel Chika and Wendell Alvarez regarding John Soberano’s disparaging remarks against them.
“Hindi binantayan ang kanyang dila at emosyon at inaway-away niya po ako lalo na ang dating manager ng kanyang anak na si Ogie Diaz,” Cristy remarked.
Earlier, John had posted derogatory comments on his Facebook account, targeting Cristy and Ogie. This raised eyebrows as the prevalent topic during that period was the separation of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla, popularly known as KathNiel.
“Marami naman akong nakikitang mga magulang ng mga artista na nagsasalita rin naman ng kanilang mga emosyon pero hindi ganitong ang mga salitang ginagamit ay bastos na nagmumura,” Cristy expressed her astonishment.
At present, John has deleted the posts containing offensive remarks, particularly those aimed at Cristy and Ogie, suggesting their supposed meddling in the lives of celebrities.
Cristy stressed that there are appropriate channels to address concerns, especially since Ogie had been their talent manager for several years.
“Ako naman po ay tinatanggap ko ang ganyang mga komento lalo pa kung hindi naman mahalaga ‘yung tao sa akin pero para murahin ang aking namayapang ina na sobrang minamahal ko at lagi kong pinagdarasal na sana’y kasama ko pa para kahit paano’y mapasaya ko,” Cristy asserted.
She continued, “Hindi ako papayag kahit sinong magmura sa nanay ko. Walang anak na papayag na murahin ang kanyang ina ng isang taong hindi kami kilala at si Ogie na napakalaki ng naitulong sa kanilang pamilya.”
With the holiday season approaching and gift-giving becoming customary, Cristy has a special gift in mind for John.
“Personal na kaming nagkita ng aking abogado na si Atty. Ferdie Topacio at personal nang inihain sa kanya ang demand letter na kailangan niyang bawiin ang kayang mga ipinost sa loob ng limang araw na ibinibigay sa kanya. Kapag hindi n’ya ‘yun binawi at kami ay ginamot kung saan niya kami sinaktan, tuloy ang cyberlibel. Kailangang binibigyan ng leksyon ang mga taong nakalilimot sa kagandahang asal,” Cristy declared.
As of now, there has been no statement or reaction from Liza’s father regarding the legal action initiated by the columnist against his social media posts
