Ian de Leon hits back at sister Lotlot: Stop telling lies especially to my dad

Ian de Leon did not mince words as he responded to the earlier statement of his adoptive sister Lotlot de Leon, accusing her of “telling lies” to their father Christopher de Leon.

Ian previously had an interview on “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda,” where he reiterated that he is the “sole heir” of their mother Nora Aunor, and that his siblings had been informed about the one-person corporation (OPC) he founded to manage the legacy of the late Superstar.

A fuming Lotlot addressed this and alleged that Ian had been spewing lies on national TV.

“Enough! Enough with the lies! Tahimik ako, tahimik si Matet, si Kiko at si Ken,” she said, referring to their adoptive siblings. “Wala na kaming sinasabi, and then you go out on a TV show and tell everyone na sinabi mo sa amin [OPC], which is not true.”

Ian responded to this via his Facebook page, albeit without mentioning Lotlot. He claimed that the latter had hurriedly set up a foundation, allegedly out of concern that others might get ahead of them.

According to the actor, he told them he was not ready to commit at the time because he wanted the legal documents to be processed first. He admitted he knew his siblings’ plans but that he committed not to get involved until they secured the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) registration.

Ian claimed that his siblings attempted to “entrap” him and make him sign a certain document.

“The projects/plans for the legacy are the first to come before fixing any legalities and was still a concept at that time. Now there are issues, but the planning are still ongoing. I cannot just stop what I’m doing just because of the issues and why am I going to include a person who refuses to cooperate?” he wrote.

‘Lies’

Ian then addressed each of the remarks made by Lotlot, including his decision to talk about their family matters in a television interview. He also shared a screenshot of the online meeting he and his siblings supposedly had where the OPC was discussed.

“Who put down the siblings? Did you even watch the whole show before reacting? Kayo lang ba pwede magpa-interview?” he continued, also noting that his “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda” appearance was for the upcoming Father’s Day.

“Enough with the lies? You stop. You stop telling lies especially to my dad,” Ian added.

Ian did not expound on the “lies” he was referring to. He then went on to stress that he treated Lotlot like his real sister and that he still calls her “Ate.”

“After the state funeral, when the five of us are talking, I was clear and told you guys na tulong-tulong tayong lima dito at maging transparent sa isa’t isa, and everything will take time and everything will be divided equally. Pero ang palabas is madamot ako? Why?” he said.

“Sino ang may inaagaw? I didn’t say na may inaagaw kayo,” he stressed. “Why say that? To put me down?”
