Singer-songwriter Medwin Marfil of True Faith responded to a claim of a netizen that he was the father of Jaclyn Jose’s Son, Gwen Garimond Ilagan Guck, through his Twitter account on September 4.
Marfil reposted a screenshot of Facebook user Rex Mari Hontanosas Cabagnot’s comment in an article pointing to him as the father of Guck and refuted the netizen’s claim.
Sorry, hinde po ako ang ama ng son ni Jane/Jaclyn. pic.twitter.com/mQvLSuWCKA

He then responded to a reply from another netizen. He clarified that it was their ex-guitarist that was Guck’s father.
Ex-guitarist namin ang daddy nung son.

Earlier, Jose posted her reaction to a YouTube interview with Guck’s biological father, Kenneth Ilagan, on the YouTube channel of Paco Arespacochaga.
Jose expressed dismay over the guitarist of The Dawn and Rivermaya, implying that the musician was an absentee father.
“For me ok, tinago ko anak ko sa US at ayaw niya degradation niya ‘yun nakakausap mo ba anak mo? Hindi, pati ako nadamay sa kalokohan mo! I will never forgive you!”
Jose also urged Ilagan to stop accepting interviews, noting that the musician fled from the Philippines to avoid legal repercussions.
“Saw an interview of this Kenneth kay Paco, natawa ako at nalungkot kasi ang tao na ito? Laugh trip talaga…ayoko na sana mag comment…pero you have done so many wrong.. dapat ‘di ka na mag accept ng interview kasi ayan…pagkatapos ko madami pa dadating.
“I don’t like you! Because of so many things papatulan talaga kita kasi ‘di ka dapat tularan, tumakbo ka na lang ng US at tumahimik. Baka ma-deport ka pa… ‘di ba Ms. Cartago? ‘Wag na ‘yan..gago ‘yan, eh!!! Take it from me, tatay ‘yan ng anak ko e.”
Earlier, Jose announced her retirement from showbiz, which she retracted later due to a prior commitment with the Kapuso Network.
