As a father, Jeric Raval admitted that he is sometimes hurt by the criticism directed at his daughter AJ Raval.

It’s a good thing he doesn’t have any social media accounts so that none of the shaming reaches him.

Jeric’s statement in Ogie Diaz’s interview with him in his vlog, which was published on August 1, 2022, “Bilang magulang, hindi mo naman maiaalis yun, na masasaktan ako.

“Sabi ko nga, hindi ko na lang binabasa, hindi ko iniintindi kaya wala. Kasi, parang kasama na ‘yan, e, pag nag-artista ka.

“Pag nag-artista ka, ready ka diyan. Hindi lahat ng tao matutuwa sa ‘yo.

“Ngayon, kung hindi ka ready diyan, hindi para sa ‘yo ‘tong trabaho na ‘to.”

The never-ending controversy surrounding AJ’s alleged pregnancy is still being debated today, and Aljur Abrenica is said to be the father of the child she is carrying.

According to Jeric, he asked AJ why he didn’t address the subject of her pregnancy. AJ stated that she was sick of being answered.

Jeric even jokingly said it: “Tsaka kung buntis, e, di mabuti, at least hindi pala siya baog.”

He added, “Tsaka, ewan ko, ginagawa nilang problema yun pag ang tao buntis. Pag buntis, e, di manganak.

“Ang masama, pag buntis ka, kabuwanan mo na hindi ka pa makapanganak.”

Aljur is still linked to AJ to this day.

According to Jeric, he and Aljur have been meeting for a few months and have been able to communicate.

He stated that he simply does not want his child to be in trouble at the end.

According to the former action star, “Nag-usap na naman kami nang lalaki sa lalaki.

“Sabi ko, ‘Tatlong bagay lang ang hihingin ko sa ‘yo, anak, kung talagang mahal mo yung anak ko. Iayos mo muna yung buhay mo, iayos mo muna yung sarili mo.

“’Lahat nasa ayos, lahat nasa lugar. So whatever happens, hindi naman lumitaw na disgrasyada yung anak ko.

“’Babae yung anak ko ‘tol, may anak ka rin.’

“Na-evaluate ko naman siya, mabait naman. He’s a good person.”

Meanwhile, Jeric admitted that he had previously opposed his daughter’s exposure to sėxy films.

He stated, “Ang totoo niyan, hindi ko siya sinusuportahan sa mga ganung klaseng pelikula.

“E, ako nga action star ako, kapag pinanood mo yung aking pelikula, wala akong torrid kissing scene, e. Wala akong nakatalikod na litaw ang wėtpaks.”
