And as I&#x27;ve said, I will protect them with my life. Hindi ko bibitawan iyang dalawa na iyan, kadugtong na ng buhay ko [sila] eh,&quot; she said. </p><p>Jose, however, refused to comment on reports, quoting Andi&#x27;s half-sister, that Jake Ejercito is the biological father of Ellie. She explained that she is in no position to comment on such private matters. </p><p>&quot;I can&#x27;t talk about that kasi nandoon lang po ako sa anak ko si Andi at apo ko si Ellie. Hanggang doon lang po ang puwede kong sabihin,&quot; she said. </p><p>Last month, Max, Andi&#x27;s half-sister, revealed in an online podcast that a DNA test has proved that Ejercito is the real father of Ellie. </p><p>Andi has since released a statement asking for privacy, but did not confirm nor deny Max&#x27;s claims. Casiño, on the other hand, expressed relief over the news, saying that he is &quot;happy that the truth is out.&quot; </p><p>After the news of Max&#x27;s revelation broke, many have started demanding that Andi apologize to Casiño for dragging his name into her pregnancy controversy, hampering the early parts of his career as an actor. </p><p>According to Jose, Andi is doing well despite the criticisms. &quot;We&#x27;re very good now. She&#x27;s good. Everybody&#x27;s good in the family. Intact lang kami, buo ang loob, kapit kapit, walang hihiwalay, at kung madapa ang isa, madadapa ang lahat,&quot; she said. </p><p>She continued: &quot;Basta ang importante sa amin ay nagmamahalan kami at nagsusuportahan kaming magpapamilya, magkakahawak kami at sa lahat ng laban ay hindi ko iiwanan si Andi at si Ellie.&quot;</p>
