Kapamilya news anchor and broadcast journalist, Karen Davila blatantly reacted upon seeing Manny Pacquiao’s son, Jimuel, personally in a recent video episode on her Youtube channel.
“Wow! Ang gwapo naman nito,” she reacted. “Bakit ang mestizo mo?”
When she outspokenly reacted to Manny Pacquiao after seeing the son, Jimuel, during a conversation and house tour with Pacquiao, Davila became a trending topic on social media sites, particularly Twitter.
“Sigurado kang anak mo ito? Parang hindi ako sure,” she asked Pacquiao in disbelief.
The people’s champ interpreted the reaction as a joke, as evidenced by the fact that he was laughing out his response to Davila’s questioning in the video.
Netizens noticed her reaction online as she posted her latest YouTube content last June 19. She went viral on Twitter where users labeled it as offensive.
“Hoy Karen preno preno rin pag may time,” @vexer9099 posted.

The exchanged remarks of Davila and Pacquiao were not unusual to the public as they were once viral when the broadcaster questioned Pacquiao about his educational attainment.
As discussed in the video, Pacquiao was unconcerned by Davila’s questioning since he believed it was the TV anchor’s role to grill a national boxing legend turned public servant like him.
