Netizens have wondered who the cute child is, with some speculating that she could be Marjorie’s daughter. However, there is uncertainty about who the father is.
Marjorie has been a doting single mom to her four children: Dani is her child with actor Kier Legaspi while Julia, Claudia and Leon call actor and comedian Dennis Padilla dad. Dennis and Marjorie were married from 1997 to 2009.
In 2008, Marjorie was linked to former Caloocan Mayor Recom Echiverri while she was then councilor of the same city. She has consistently denied the allegations.
It was also rumored that she gave birth in the United States in 2009. Her manager June Rufino denied the rumors as reported on “SNN: Showbiz News Ngayon.”
According to a Bandera report, a source said in 2012 that Marjorie filed a leave as councilor to give birth.
Another source who requests anonymity tells INQUIRER.net that Marjorie once applied for insurance for a “pamangkin” with the last name Echiverri. It is unclear if this is the same child in the family’s photos. /ra
