Pokwang once again lambasted her estranged partner Lee O’Brian a few days after he penned an emotional message on the birthday of their daughter Malia, calling her birth the “best moment” of his life.
On her Facebook account last Thursday, Jan. 18, Pokwang accused O’Brian of being two-faced and exploitative of their daughter on social media, as the latter wouldn’t delete videos containing Malia’s face from the official YouTube channel of their now-defunct food business.
“Ayun nagpaka ama nanaman sa socmed! Ang kapal! Mahal daw nya anak nya e bakit di maidelete lahat ng video namin ng anak nya sa youtube na Poklee (He’s acting like an ideal dad on social media. How dare he! If he loves his daughter, why couldn’t he delete videos of his daughter from the PokLee YouTube channel),” she said.

Pokwang asserted that she and her daughter are no longer involved with O’Brian and the food business while pointing out that his gestures are a form of “exploitation.”
“Wala na kami koneksyon, tapos na! kasi nga pinagkakakitaan nya kami sa Youtube! Kapal! Malinaw na exploitation yan hoy (We’re not connected with him anymore. We’re done, because he’s earning off us on YouTube. How dare he! It’s a clear form of exploitation),” she wrote.
In the comments section of O’Brian’s Instagram page, Pokwang also accused O’Brian of acting as if he’s a responsible father, in response to one @spitzhofermay who hoped that Malia would be reunited with the American actor.
“Oo, para sumbatan sya dahil di naman nagpaka ama, sa socmed lang. Tse (Yes, so she can unleash her wrath, because he was never a father to her in real life, only on social media),” she said.

With over 526,000 subscribers, the official YouTube channel of PokLee still contains the videos of Pokwang, O’Brian, and Malia as a family.

In December last year, O’Brian was ordered deported by the Bureau of Immigration after supposedly violating his work visa. The whereabouts of the American actor are yet to be known, as of this writing.
