Abegail Rait, who previously claimed to be the daughter of the late renowned rapper Francis Magalona, has been the target of intense online criticism.
Additionally, Rait’s alleged child, Cheska, who is said to be embarking on a career in show business, has also been drawn into the controversy.
The public’s response has been quite severe, and it appears to have had a direct impact on Abegail’s political aspirations, as she recently lost her bid for a councilor position in Cavite. Many speculate that Cheska’s future prospects in the entertainment industry might similarly suffer.
The Magalona family, however, has chosen to remain silent amid the growing controversy. Some individuals who were closely associated with Francis Magalona during his early career have indicated that they may possess critical information regarding the matter. Although we had the opportunity to cross paths with Francis Magalona in his early days, as time progressed, we each pursued our separate paths, and communication dwindled.
The validity of the claims made remains uncertain, and it appears that Abegail and her child are bearing the brunt of public scrutiny. In an attempt to support her daughter’s entry into show business, a jersey reportedly left behind by the late rapper was auctioned off to raise funds.
It is noteworthy that Francis Magalona did not witness the birth of the child and did not offer any support during Abegail’s pregnancy, as he was already dealing with health issues.
Abegail’s plea is straightforward: critique her if you must, but refrain from directing any negative attention or comments towards her child. Given the challenging circumstances of the child’s upbringing, it is crucial to avoid subjecting her to unwarranted criticisms and judgments. Cheska’s sole acknowledgment was that her father is the renowned Master Rapper.
Although it remains uncertain whether DNA testing will be pursued to establish paternity definitively, it has been affirmed that Cheska is open to undergoing such testing should the need arise.
