Stop muna kami sa annulment. Kasi, ano po, kami ni Raymart ngayon, we’re really very good friends now,” Claudine shared.“We’re really trying our best talaga to be good parents kasi nga nag-fail na po kami as husband and wife, so we don’t want to fail naman as parents sa mga anak namin. Napag-usapan namin na i-stop na lahat-lahat ng mga kaso and mag-co-parenting na lang kami sa pagpapalaki ng mga anak namin.“And now na meron kaming naayos na foundation, strong foundation ni Raymart na sobrang solid kami talaga when it comes to our kids, napag-usapan namin na... sabi ko kasi sa kanya na ‘ano, mag-a-annulment na ba tayo, may girlfriend ka na ba?’ Sabi niya, hindi na daw siya ikakasal. Sabi ko, ayoko na rin (magpakasal),&quot; she said. In June this year, in an article written in Abante by Jun Lalin, Atty. Ferdinand revealed that the couple are now not on good terms.It was in the same interview that the lawyer shared that they will be filing a complaint against Raymart.“I don’t think they’re exactly friends. In fact, we’ll be suing Raymart,” the lawyer said.
