Gusto kong sabihin with regards to Marjorie: &#x27;never.&#x27;</p><p>&quot;I value my life, my mental health, my peace and my finances. I am not ready and I don&#x27;t think I will ever be for Marjorie. </p><p>&quot;She has become so toxic in my life. I would not stop loving her but I also love myself, I also love my family.&quot; </p><p>She explained that her other siblings, sans Claudine, have been guilt-tripping her about her supposed lavish lifestyle. </p><p>&quot;I cannot be crucified for the life that I live and the things that I have,&quot; she said in the same interview. &quot;Bakit ako sasama sa mga tao na they feel like they need to own what I own.&quot; </p><p>&quot;For the past so many years I have found refuge, comfort, and a lot of love --I feel so great with the people I&#x27;m with and they&#x27;re not blood related at all. They don&#x27;t need my money, anything else from me, except me. Just me,&quot; she said. </p><p>She added that Claudine is the only one who does not make her feel this way. In fact, her younger sister has been showering her with gifts instead of asking for one, she shared. </p><p>Gretchen has been in a relationship with businessman Tonyboy Cojuangco for over two decades. They have one daughter. </p><p>Asked about her parents, whom she had a public falling out with, Gretchen said: &quot;They have kept quiet and As a sign of respect, I would like to give them peace and I want peace as well.&quot; </p>
