00:00I just have a few things I want to clarify about the interviews and my mother's answers to her interviews.
00:08First of all, the 70k incentives that she was talking about from the World Championships 2021.
00:17First of all, that was in 2022.
00:20And it wasn't just 70k that I received there, I know it was six digits.
00:27Because I got two medals.
00:30After that, around December, I went home to the Philippines.
00:35We met my mother.
00:38And she didn't tell me that she already received my incentives from the World Championships.
00:45I didn't know that she already received my incentives if I didn't look for them.
00:51I never received those incentives.
00:55And I never asked them for them.
00:59I gave them and they don't have them anymore.
01:01I just want to know where my incentives went.
01:07The principle here is not about the small or big amount of incentives that she received.
01:14But it's about her hiding and moving when I didn't give her my consent.
01:21And about Chloe's red flag that my mother told me about.
01:25She immediately judged Chloe regarding her clothing and her behavior.
01:31She was raised differently.
01:33First of all, Chloe grew up in Australia.
01:36And that's what inspired her culture.
01:39And it's really different in the Philippines on how we move, speak, or dress.
01:46And about my mother telling me that my son will run out of money.
01:51First of all, Chloe has her own income.
01:54Everything that she earns, her travel expenses,
01:59it all comes from her hard work.
02:01And why would I run out of money?
02:04Like I said, Chloe has her own income.
02:08And all of my bank accounts are in my mother's account.
02:12And there are instances where Chloe is the one who pays me.
02:17Aside from the incentives, she also has my bank account.
02:22My monthly allowances for my gymnastics.
02:26And when I got my bank account,
02:29that's when I found out that she was spending all of it.
02:33And the bank statements and withdrawals that she made are all in my account.
02:37She said that we didn't understand each other at first.
02:41Because of Chloe.
02:43Yes, that's true.
02:45Because ever since the beginning,
02:47she doesn't want Chloe even though she hasn't seen or met him in person.
02:53And we got more confused when I put boundaries in my relationship.
03:00Because I fought against Chloe because I like her.
03:03About the training camp that she was talking about,
03:08my former coach told me that Chloe should be gone by the time the two of us go to the training camp.
03:16Usually, when we go to the training camp, we're always in a hotel.
03:20And it's miscommunicated that they're going to stay with me.
03:25It's also not true that when the two of them went there,
03:30Chloe should be gone because they went there at the same time.
03:34Actually, my former coach was surprised because Chloe was there.
03:38We really welcomed them.
03:40We prepared for them.
03:42So I don't know why he said that.
03:46And what he said was that the two kids,
03:49because Chloe was there,
03:52the one with the bandage,
03:54as an older sibling,
03:58as Chloe's boyfriend,
04:01and as a sister and brother,
04:03we will take care of them.
04:06We won't do what he thinks is bad thinking.
04:12And it's not appropriate for me.
04:15And it's disrespectful to me and Chloe.
04:20And what he said was that there should be no outsiders or guests in my apartment.
04:28It's also not true because there's nothing in the contract that says
04:35that guests or outsiders are not allowed inside the apartment.
04:40And actually, Chloe was invited by my former coach from Japan
04:46when SEA Games was just held in Vietnam.
04:49So we were told to invite Chloe to Japan and hang out there.
04:56He also said that he was keeping Chloe away from them.
05:02It was months before that because I was going home for three days.
05:10I told them that I would spend time with Chloe.
05:14We went to Baguio.
05:17I took Chloe with me.
05:18We spent time together.
05:20We were hanging out.
05:22Chloe wasn't keeping me away.
05:25We went to Pangasinan.
05:28We had a meet-and-greet there.
05:31After that, we went to Baguio.
05:34And you invited me to go biking.
05:39Because we didn't know what to do after eating.
05:42Because they were like, oh, what do we do?
05:44I was like, oh, let's go to Burnham Park so that we can take the little kids to go biking.
05:50I'll just attach a screenshot of me saying sorry at that time
05:53if they felt left out when we were all hanging out in Baguio.
05:57So you guys can just pause and read.
06:00Actually, my mom and Chloe's family met twice.
06:04And then they talked.
06:06And the last resort, my family made a group chat with everybody involved.
06:12Because my family wanted to address your mom's issues towards me.
06:18Yeah, because she posted a lot.
06:19Yeah, she posted a lot.
06:20And even though my family knew that she posted a lot,
06:24my family still welcomed them, treated them with respect,
06:28and with no judgment that they heard your mom's side of what she had to say about me
06:34and our relationship.
06:36And then after the group chat, she left.
06:40Your mom left.
06:42And she didn't hear anything from my family.
06:44In my recent interview, you guys congratulated me.
06:50If I'm being genuine, thank you so much.
06:53I acknowledge that you guys congratulated me.
06:56But I still get flashbacks of the painful things you said to me.
07:02And the things you didn't wish well for me.
07:06Like, it really hit me.
07:09My message to you guys is to heal.
07:13Move on.
07:14And I forgave you guys a long time ago.
07:17I pray that you guys will always be safe.
07:20And that you guys are in a good condition.
07:23That's where everything is.
07:24Let's stop this.
07:26And let's celebrate the sacrifices of every Filipino athlete here in the Olympics.
