MANILA – Jake Ejercito strongly believes his friendship with Sandro Marcos will not be affected by politics.

This after a netizen called him out for airing his opinion on the recent decision of the Supreme Court to allow the burial of Sandro’s grandfather, former president Ferdinand E. Marcos, at the Libingan ng mga Bayani.

On Instagram, Ejercito, who is the son of former president Joseph Estrada, shared a photo of a book titled “Bayan Ko” and in the caption, he wrote: "Body may be buried, but not the truth."

According to the netizen, this somehow feels “off” considering that Ejercito is Sandro's friend.

“Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion and I respect that but it’s just that seeing you post this while hanging out once in a while with Sandro Marcos in London is kinda off… just saying,” the netizen wrote.

Responding to the comment, Ejercito said: “Real friendships go beyond politics.”

Back in May, Ejercito came to the defense of Sandro after he was criticized on social media for his actions and statements during the presidential elections.

According to Ejercito, Sandro is “way better than what social media depicts him to be.”

He also said at that time that he and Sandro have known each other for a long time.
