Trina Candaza disclosed that Carlo Aquino did not reach out to her to ask for their daughter Mithi to attend his and actress Charlie Dizon’s wedding.
Candaza said this in response to a query from showbiz reporter Ogie Diaz, as per the latter’s vlog on Tuesday, June 11. Diaz reached out to Candaza, echoing questions from curious netizens asking why Mithi was not part of the actor’s entourage.
“Sabi ni Trina, nasa kanya lang daw si Mithi. Baka daw ‘yung iba ma-misinterpret na ‘di niya pinayagan,” Diaz said.
While seemingly reading a message, Diaz continued, “Carlo didn’t ask if pwedeng umattend si Mithi.”
Diaz further noted, “Pero kay Trina, kung nagpaalam lang si Carlo, bakit naman daw hindi. E hindi raw nagreach out sa kanya.”
Candaza opted not to expound on her current setup with Aquino. Nonetheless, Diaz underscored that both sides have their reasons and that the public must respect them.
Aquino and Candaza became a couple in January 2019 and welcomed Mithi in September 2020. The pair’s breakup was confirmed to the public in 2022.
In early 2023, Aquino claimed that he was being prevented from seeing their daughter. Candaza denied this and said the actor visits Mithi and fulfills his responsibility as a father, although he allegedly “only gives the bare minimum.”
In September of the same year, the actor reportedly took legal action to acquire visitation rights for Mithi. Candaza did not immediately comment on the matter at the time.
Meanwhile, Aquino and Dizon tied the knot in Silang, Cavite, on June 9.
