Lee O’Bryan greeted his ex-partner Pokwang on Mother’s Day, saying he will “always have love” for his daughter Malia’s mother, but the actress-comedienne didn’t seem to be buying it.
On Instagram on Mother’s Day, May 14, O’Bryan gave a generic greeting to all mothers and thanked them for raising their children.
“Happiest of Mother’s Day to all the mothers out there — to my very own, to the mother of my child, to my aunts and cousins, friends and all the women — who raise and nurture their children. We literally would not be here without you!! Thank you for what you do,” he said.

The American actor was cornered by showbiz platform Philippine Entertainment Portal at the mediacon of a new movie, Sandwich, directed by Brillante Mendoza, wherein he was asked if he was aware of Pokwang’s tirades against him on social media.
O’Bryan, however, declined to directly comment on the question, saying instead, “All I can say is, I love my daughter more than anything in this world. And you know what, I always have love for the mother of my child because she brought my child into this world. And that’s my story. That’s all I can say.”
But Pokwang appeared not convinced by her ex-partner’s words of “love,” as she accused O’Brian of being “plastic and narcissistic” in the comments section of PEP‘s Instagram post, where it shared a snippet of its exclusive interview with the latter.
“The design is very plastic and narcissistic hahhahahaha pagmumukhain akong masama. USER TAMA NA HOY (You’re making me look like the bad guy. Stop it, user)!” Pokwang said.

“Tama kana accla (Stop it),” she further said in another comment, referring to her ex using slang.
The “Dear Uge” star’s remarks drew mixed remarks from netizens on social media, with some expressing their support for Pokwang. One @graize_aisha, however, pointed out that there was “nothing wrong” with O’Brian’s statement.

This is not the first time she described O’Brian as a user, as she also defined him as such last January after revealing that she kicked him out of her house.
Pokwang’s remarks came two months after she appeared to have taken her domestic woes with O’Brian to court, where she sought the help of high-profile law firm Calinisan Domingo and Beron law offices.
“Hindi ako susuko para sayo anak @malia_obrian kung naitaguyod ko si ate ng mag isa, mas lalo ako magsisipag at magiging matapang para sayo at sa inyo ng ate mo (I am not going to give up for you, my child Malia. If I can raise your ate on my own, then I surely can work harder and be stronger for the both of you,” she said on Instagram last March 2023. EDV
