DESIDIDO ang dating asawa ni Derek Ramsay na si Mary Christine Jolly na hingan ng P42 million ang Kapatid hunk actor.
Ito’y may kaugnayan pa rin sa kasong isinampa niya laban kay Derek for violation of Republic Act No. 9262 or the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act. Mariing idinenay ni Mary Christine na bina-blackmail niya ang dating mister at lalong hindi rin totoong in love pa rin siya rito.
Aniya, ang hinihingi niyang halaga ay para sa sa “child and spouse support.” “There’s no love. He’s destroyed all that. It’s been 11 years. It’s destroyed, there’s nothing left to give,” aniya sa interview ng ABS-CBN.
“I want him back in Austin’s life, my son’s life. I want him back only in my son’s life,” dagdag pa nito. Sa huling interview kay Derek, pinabulaanan nito ang lahat ng akusasyon sa kanya ni Mary, lalo na ang bintang nito na pinabayaan niya ang kanilang anak.
Pero inamin niyang itinago niya ang katotohanan sa publiko. “I wanted to know my son first and keep my relationship with him private. (He) was just an 8-year-old boy then and he would not be able to comprehend the possible media curiosity about him, especially since he was then new to the country and about to pursue his education here,” ani Derek.
“Given the circumstances between Mary and I, which is far from ideal, I had to protect (my son) first,” ani Derek. Paniguro ni Derek, hindi niya uurungan ang kasong isinampa sa kanya ng dating asawa at handa siyang sagutin ang lahat ng akusasyon nito sa husgado. Nabatid din na nasa kamay na ni Derek ang ilang ebidensiyang magdidiin daw sa kanyang ex-wife.
