Sottos mum on Ciara’s marital woes

Senator Vicente “Tito” Sotto III 
and veteran actress Helen
Gamboa refused to comment
on the marital problems of their
daughter Ciara Sotto.

Last week, Ciara finally broke
her silence on rumors that she
has left husband Jojo Oconer.
In an Instagram post last Friday,
Ciara confirmed that she has
decided to return to her parents’
house, adding that the past weeks
have been difficult for her and her son.

Sotto and Gamboa said they
do not want to speak on Ciara’s
behalf. “We’d rather leave it to
her, leave it to her discretion kung
ano ang gusto niyang ipaalam sa
publiko about her relationship,
her marriage. Nasa kanya na,” the
lawmaker said.

The two also asked the public to give
their daughter the privacy she has requested.
“She justwants to keep her privacy in the meantime,”
Gamboa said. “Hindi namin ‘ika nga’y gustong
isapubliko ang aming paguusap at ang sinasabi niya sa
amin,” the senator added. “At the moment,
hayaan niyo muna kung ano ang feel niya, kung ano ang
diskarte niya.”
Sotto and Oconer were married in 2010. They gave birth to
their first child, Vincezo Xose, last
year.•
