Aileen Dreyfus, the wife of Chuckie Dreyfus, broke her silence after former actor John Regala accused his former supporters of potentially stealing donations meant for him.
The troubled actor told Raffy Tulfo in a recent episode of TV5’s Tulfo in Action that his celebrity friends did not give him the remaining money after his hospital expenses.
John, along with his assistant, identified as Bem Santillan Torres, said he had not received a fund breakdown but just copies of hospital and bank receipts.
Aileen Dreyfus immediately cleared up the accusations and made a revelation. On the Facebook account of Aileen, she explained point by point of Regala’s accusation of her husband.
“I took it upon myself to comment on a few statements by Mr. John Regala and Bem Santillan Torres (his current caretaker). These statements were made during their interview with Mr. Raffy Tulfo last Aug 25, 2020. I will answer them point by point. The time codes are for reference when you watch the video using the link below.”
She first clarified Regala’s statement that his BDO bank account was in zero balance.
“The remaining cash amounting to ₱115,151.20 was deposited into your personal Metrobank account kaya zero-zero balance na ang BDO joint account under Nadia and Aster’s name. Ganon ka simple.”

She also clarified that they did not get the donations from veteran host Vic Sotto and Senator Bong Revilla since they were given directly to Regala.
“We have no access to the donations from Vic Sotto and Bong Revilla because it was all given to you and NOT THROUGH US. The donations of Jinggoy Estrada, concerned citizens, and a few notable personalities that passed through us were all accounted for. Kung may mga nag donate na wala sa list namin, ibig sabihin, wala kaming nakuha, wala kaming kinalaman, and wala kaming access.”
“To answer:
₱90K – Given to Bem Santillan Torres by Nadia at NKTI from the cash donations for hospital bills.
₱47,600 ($1,000) – money from ex-wife Au Manansala-Hunt that was sent via Western Union that Bem Santillan Torres withdrew.
₱10,000 – donation from Liza D that was deposited to the BDO joint account of Nadia and Aster.
₱20,000 – donation from Cong. Ong that was given to John.
TOTAL: ₱167,600”
At the end of her speech, she told the ‘Manila Kingpin’ star to stop making up stories and just use the rest of the money properly to recover from his illness.
“So please Mr. Regala, stop making up stories. Magpagaling ka na lang and use the remaining cash donations that we deposited (kung meron pa) for your medications. Gastusin mo sa tama.
“Ano pang patunay ang pinagsasasabi mo? Isa-isahin mo at tignan mong mabuti. May pa burden of proof ka pa, eh ikaw na ang burden ngayon!”
