Marjorie Barretto has broken her silence following her mother Inday Barretto\u2019s vlog interview<\/a> with Ogie Diaz, where Inday made remarks about her personality and their strained mother-daughter relationship.<\/p>\n

In a lengthy Instagram post, Marjorie opened up about her side, revealing that her mother\u2019s statements came as a shock, especially as their family continues to grieve the death of her brother, Mito<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cA few days ago, on my brother’s first-month death anniversary, an interview of my mom was released,\u201d Marjorie wrote, saying that it was something that was weighing heavily on her heart.<\/p>\n

\u201cI woke up to frantic calls and messages from loved ones saying that my mom had said very hurtful and untrue things about me,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Marjorie said she was surprised to learn that her mother claimed they were not on good terms.<\/p>\n

\u201cWas I not taking my mom home from the wake? Was I only dreaming that we were talking, hugging, and comforting each other?\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She also questioned the timing of her mother\u2019s remarks, especially since they are still mourning her brother\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

\u201cOr am I once again damage control? The Mission: Destroy Marjorie – to make the youngest child look good and clean,\u201d she claimed.<\/p>\n

Marjorie defended herself, saying she has always shown love to her family, including her mother.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the years, through all my Instagram posts, you’ve seen me surrounded by my family,\u201d she said. \u201cI always make sure we are all together at my gatherings.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn all those photos and videos, have you not seen my mom at our big family events? Was that all just a dream? An illusion of mine?\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Addressing her mother\u2019s claim that she was embarrassed by her, Marjorie responded: \u201cWhy would you say that, Mom?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou and my siblings know very well that you’ve often asked me not to post photos of us together because Gretchen and Claudine might get upset,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Marjorie also claimed her mother \u201cbegged\u201d her not to fix things with Gretchen and Claudine so she would not \u201cbe left out.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am 51 years old, and for more than 20 of those years, I have been punished for being the child who never bothered my parents with problems, the one who kept it together even while drowning to survive,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith my mom, if you are not a problematic child, you become the least favorite.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Marjorie claimed that Inday\u2019s Part 2 interview with Ogie \u201cwas just as false, unfair, and destructive\u201d as her Part 1 interview about the relationship between Claudine and Raymart Santiago<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In Inday’s interview, she had described Marjorie as \u201cstrong-willed\u201d and admitted they don\u2019t always get along.<\/p>\n

\u201cMarjorie is very strong-willed. Sometimes lampas sa normal,\u201d Inday said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t get along fine. I love her, she knows that. She’d better know it because otherwise what a loss.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Inday also said she feels rejected by her daughter.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI just feel like she loves me, but parang hindi ako enough sa kaniya,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cParang may hinahanap siya sa akin na hindi ko alam kung ano kasi kung alam ko, ibigay ko,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

According to Marjorie, her mom called her strong-willed “in a bad way.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Mom, I should not be punished and insulted for being strong-willed.\u00a0I fought so hard to get to this point. I had no choice.\u00a0When the going gets tough for the favored child, I am made to suffer for it,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Marjorie ended her statement by saying she has learned to accept \u201cwhatever kind of love\u201d her mom can give her.<\/p>\n

\u201cInstead of looking for affection and protection from you, I will pour all of my energy into being the best mom to my children,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not a perfect mom, but they can trust me,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

In the comments section of Marjorie’s post, her children, Dani, Julia, and Leon Barretto, shared their words of support.<\/p>\n

“We will always love you and protect you! No matter what,” Dani commented.<\/p>\n
