MANILA – ABS-CBN chief content officer and “Maalaala Mo Kaya” host Charo Santos Concio on Wednesday addressed the controversy surrounding the most recent episode of the drama anthology which told the life story of Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach.

In an interview, Concio said the team behind "MMK" made sure to get the account of Wurtzbach from no one but the beauty queen herself.

“We talked to Pia. ‘MMK’ talked to Pia. That’s her story so we respect her story,” she said.

After the trending episode last Saturday, the Internet was barraged with statements from a certain Robie Asingua and an Alexander Wurtzbach, claiming to be the former wife and son, respectively, of the beauty queen’s father.

Through a Facebook post, Asingua lambasted Wurtzbach for allegedly lying about her father, who passed away several years ago. Asingua claims Wurtzbach’s father never asked money from her at all.

The "MMK" episode showed Wurtzbach’s father calling her after her stint on Binibining Pilipinas to seek financial help for his medication.

“What a hell are you doing Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, making a false story oh yeah you are a big liar your papa never ask money from you, shame to yourself...Your mama got an affair with neighbor name Jojo, that's why papa abandoned your mother and you pretty wow know that all,” she said, unedited.

For his part, Alexander also called Wurtzbach a liar, insisting she should just stop using their father’s surname.

“Sa lahat lahat ayaw ko yung sisiraan mo ang patay na.wala ng kinalaman yun eh. Karmahin sana kayo parang walang pinagaralan. Wag mung dadalahin ang apelyedo na yan kung alam mo ganyan ugali ng tatay mo,” he wrote, unedited.

“Kala ko ba babaero sya at wala sya kwenta bakit mahal mo parin sya. your a freeking liar dont use my father's surname if you don't like him you'r a millionaire now so change it! Don't say your money will help you.you are a liar,” Alexander added.

In the episode, Wurtzbach’s father was depicted to have had a number of mistresses that caused the breakup of the beauty queen’s parents.

Because of the allegations, Wurtzbach’s sister Sarah came to her defense and responded to Alexander’s accusations.

In an article by entertainment site PEP, Sarah was quoted to have said: “Baka gusto mong kalkalin ko yung mga message nyo ng nanay mo sa amin. Baka mapahiya ka. Tigil na kasi, ayan na fame oh! EMBRACE IT!”

Wurtzbach, who is currently is New York, has yet to speak up about the matter.
