Daniella Barretto on dad Kier Legaspi: We don't talk

MANILA – Amid the ongoing Barretto family feud, Daniella Barretto, the eldest daughter of Marjorie Barretto, has been vocal about her love for her mother saying she is extremely grateful that she raised her and her siblings well.

But what about her father, former actor Kier Legaspi?

In an exclusive interview with “The Buzz” which aired on Sunday, Daniella admitted that she and Legaspi are not in good terms.

“We don’t talk. We don’t speak. We tried to build a relationship but I guess, it was too late,” she said.

Asked by host Boy Abunda if she resents Legaspi, Daniella said, “No, I don’t. I just have so many questions na hindi rin nasagot kahit nung nag-try kami mag-build ng relationship.”

With what her family is going through right now, Daniella said she is content to have her mom by her side.

“Mom, I love you. I love you so much. Thank you for raising us all well. Thank you for all your sacrifices. Thank you for being the best support system in the world. I really really admire her for that kasi mag-isa lang ang mommy ko,” she said.

Daniella’s other siblings are Julia, Claudia and Leon, who are Marjorie’s kids with comedian Dennis Padilla.
