Marco Gumabao, the popular Filipino actor and model, has recently found himself at the center of a family revelation that has stunned his fans. In an unexpected twist, a man claiming to be his half-brother has come forward, speaking out in a highly anticipated interview and revealing shocking details about their shared family history.

The interview, which aired on a popular talk show, has set social media ablaze, with viewers expressing surprise, curiosity, and even disbelief over the revelation. For many, this is the first time they’ve ever heard of this potential family member, leaving them to question what else might have been kept hidden from the public.

The Half-Brother Speaks Out

The man, identified only as Marko (not his real name), claims that he is the product of a relationship between Marco’s father, Dennis Roldan, and another woman. In the emotional interview, Marko detailed his life growing up without the presence of the Gumabao family, but he said he never forgot about his roots.

“I’ve always known I had a different path in life, but I never thought I would have a chance to meet my half-brother, Marco,” Marko shared, his voice filled with emotion.
“I didn’t want to be in the spotlight, but now that I know the truth, I feel it’s time to share my side of the story.”

A Complex Family History

Marco Gumabao, who has been in the public eye for years, has always kept his family life relatively private. Dennis Roldan, his father, is a former actor and politician who has had his share of controversies, including a highly publicized legal battle in the past.

The existence of Marco’s half-brother has taken many by surprise, as family secrets have remained tightly under wraps for years. Marco himself has not yet publicly commented on his half-brother’s claims, though fans and media outlets are eagerly waiting for a response from the actor.

“I never imagined I would have a sibling who had lived a completely different life from mine,” Marco’s half-brother said. “But now that the truth is out, I just want to reach out and say I’m here.”

The Impact on Marco Gumabao’s Family Life

The revelation has sparked a flurry of speculation about how Marco’s family — particularly his father, Dennis Roldan, and his mother, Sandy Andolong, might respond. Fans have flooded social media, with many wondering how Marco will handle the new information about his family dynamics.

Some are asking whether Marco and Marko will have any kind of relationship moving forward or if this will remain an isolated chapter in their lives. Others have expressed their hopes that the two might connect and build a relationship despite the years of separation.

The Public’s Reaction: Shock and Support

As expected, the news has gone viral, with netizens and fans weighing in on the situation. Some are expressing shock, while others are offering their support to both Marco and his newfound half-brother.

“I hope Marco doesn’t feel hurt by this revelation. Family is family, and sometimes, the truth comes out when we least expect it,” a fan commented on Twitter.
“Whatever happens, Marco is loved by his fans. We’re here for him, whether he has one brother or ten.”

What’s Next for Marco and Marko?

At the time of writing, Marco Gumabao has not publicly addressed the revelation, and it remains to be seen how he will react. Will this newfound family connection be the start of a relationship, or will it remain a chapter in the past?

Fans are eager for any updates from Marco, but in the meantime, Marko has expressed a desire to stay out of the public eye and allow Marco to process the news at his own pace.

“I don’t want to be in the spotlight. I just wanted to share my truth,” Marko concluded in the interview. “If Marco ever wants to talk, I’m here.”

Paolo Gumabao no sibling rivalry with Marco Gumabao
He wants to work with Ivana Alawi.
Lockdown is the first movie of Paolo Gumabao, 22, in which he plays the lead role solo.

After almost seven years since he entered showbiz, Paolo’s name has become more famous, who is also known as the son of former actor Dennis Roldan and half-brother of Marco Gumabao, 26, and Michelle Gumabao, 28.

He said that they have eight siblings, and only three of them, Marco and Michelle, are in showbiz.

Who is he closer to: Marco or Michelle?

“Well, Marco and I are different because our closeness is different from Michelle’s.

“Of course, Marco and I, we have our own bonds like playing basketball, playing video games.

“As for Michelle, our bond is that we love to talk to each other. Even at night. We just talk about life.

“So we have a different bond as siblings.”

When it comes to careers, even though she and Marco are both in the same line-up for making sexy films, there is no sibling rivalry between them.

In fact, they are supportive of each other. Marco even has the poster for Lockdown on his Instagram Story.

Does he and Marco give each other advice or tips on acting?

“Yes, always. Especially when I was just starting out, because he’s been around for a while, for a few years now.

“He always tells me that it’s important to be kind to everyone around you, regardless of how tall or short they are.

“We have to respect everyone, I guess.”

PAOLO GUMABAO ON COMPARISON TO DAD DENNIS ROLDAN
How does Paolo react when someone says he looks more like their father Dennis than Marco?

“Of course he’s happy because he was known as a hottie-hottie before so of course he’s happy. But don’t let it get to your head, I just don’t like him that much,” Paolo said with a smile. When we joked with Paolo that Dennis is more handsome than him and Marco, the young man agreed.

“Of course, of course, there’s nothing like the original!”

When did he last see and talk to his father Dennis?

“Maybe before the pandemic. Because before the pandemic, we were also able to visit… where he is now.”

Dennis is currently in prison for kidnapping.

What did his father tell him about Paolo’s entry into acting?

“Nothing, we don’t actually talk about it much. It seems like when we meet, what we usually talk about is how’s things at home, how’s Mommy doing. We don’t talk about showbiz much.”

What does he pray about his father?

“Of course, I pray that he will come out soon so that Marco and I can be with him.”

PAOLO GUMABAO ON CAREER PATH
When it comes to his career, Paolo wants to follow in the footsteps or imitate Arjo Atayde, Jake Cuenca, and Piolo Pascual.

Coco Martin is also among those he looks up to, who like him started out making daring films.

He also wants to work with the aforementioned actors one day.

If he is given the opportunity, he wishes Ivana Alawi, whom he has not met in person, will be the leading lady.

Is Paolo ready to let his family watch Lockdown, where he has frontal nudity and lovemaking scenes with a woman and his fellow man?

“Actually, my mom watched it earlier,” Paolo pointed to his mother who was just at the other table while we interviewed the actor.

Beautiful and Paolo’s non-showbiz mom, Sheryl Sorreta, looks very young.

“We made the mistake of being a couple once,” Paolo exclaimed.

Paolo’s mother, when we asked her what she had to say after watching her son’s movie, replied, “It’s beautiful, I cried.”

Is she nervous about the upcoming release of the movie directed by Joel Lamangan?

Paolo replied, “Of course there was a little bit of nervousness but I only saw him as a job. So I just trusted Director Joel that he would guide me properly and of course I also really trusted myself.

“Self-confidence is really important.”

Paolo was interviewed by PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) and other members of the press during the special screening of Lockdown on Saturday, July 3, 2021, at the Sine Pop Boutique Cinema in Cubao, Quezon City.

Paolo was first seen in his minor roles in the films Haunted Mansion (2015), That Thing Called Tanga Na (2016), I Love You To Death (2016), and Debutantes (2017). He is also one of the stars of the iWant series Batang Poz (2019).
