At never ko na rin naman po na hiningi &#x27;yun sa kanila. Binigay ko na at wala na po &#x27;yun sa akin. Ang sa akin lang naman, gusto ko malaman kung saan napunta &#x27;yung incentives ko po na &#x27;yan,&quot; Yulo added.</p><p>&quot;&#x27;Yung principle po kasi dito, wala po sa liit o laki ng amount po na incentives po na ginalaw niya, kundi po sa pagtago at paggalaw niya nang wala ko pong consent, &#x27;yung pino-point ko po sa kanya.&quot;</p><div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/8/5/what-will-carlos-yulo-do-with-incentives-from-olympics-triumph-1507">READ: DOUBLE GOLD!

Magkaiba po ng kinalakihan. Unang-una, lumaki si Chloe sa Australia at ayun &#x27;yung nakagisnan niyang culture. At ibang-iba po talaga sa Pilipinas kung paano tayo gumalaw magsalita o manamit po,&quot; the gymnast explained.</p><p>Caloy asserted that his partner would not wind up his money because she has a job, and further revealed that the mother has access to his bank accounts.</p><p>&quot;At yung about po sa &#x27;yung &#x27;mauubos po &#x27;yung anak ko,&#x27; na sabi po ng mama ko: Unang-una po si Chloe po may sarili po siyang income. Lahat po nang nakikita yung gamit o yung pag-travel niya kung saan-saan po. Galing po yun sa pinagpaguran niya po,&quot; he said.</p><p>&quot;At bakit naman po ako mauubos? Gaya nga po ng sinabi ko, si Chloe po may sarili po siyang income. And lahat po ng bank account ko po nasa mama ko po. At may mga instances po talaga na si Chloe po &#x27;yung sumasalo sa akin that time po. Bukod sa incentives po, nasa kanya din kasi &#x27;yung bank account ko sa monthly allowances sa paggi-gymnastics ko,&quot; Yulo went on.</p><p>The Olympian claimed that his mother blamed Chloe for &quot;misunderstandings&quot; within the family—to which he affirmed.</p><p>Yulo said he stayed in their relationship despite lingering family issues because he liked Chloe.</p><p>&quot;Sabi niya po nagsimula daw &#x27;yung hindi namin pagkakaintindihan dahil kay Chloe daw po. Opo, totoo po &#x27;yun. Dahil ever since unang-una pa lang, ayaw niya na kay Chloe kahit hindi niya pa po nakikita or nakikilala in person. And mas nagkalabuan po kami nung naglagay po ako ng boundaries sa relationship ko. Kasi pinaglaban ko po si Chloe dahil gusto ko po siya,&quot; he said.</p><div><strong>--</strong> <strong>&#x27;Mag-heal kayo&#x27; --</strong></div><p>Yulo also discussed his mother&#x27;s alleged lack of sincerity towards him.</p><p>&quot;May recent interview po kayo na kino-congratulate niyo po ako. Kung genuine po talaga kayo, mama, maraming-maraming salamat po. Ina-acknowledge ko po &#x27;yung pag-congratulate niyo sa akin. Pero nagpa-flashback pa rin po talaga &#x27;yung masasakit niyong sinabi sa akin. At &#x27;yung mga hindi niyo pag-wish well sa akin. Tumatatak po &#x27;yun sa akin talaga.&quot;</p><p>Yulo urged his mother to move past issues and said that he had already forgiven her.</p><p>&quot;Ang message ko po sa inyo ma, na mag-heal kayo, mag-move on. Napatawad ko na kayo a long time ago po. Pinagpe-pray ko na maging safe kayo palagi at nasa maayos kayong kalagayan diyan lahat,&quot; he said.</p><div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/8/5/incentives-continue-to-pour-in-for-carlos-yulo-after-paris-triumph-1249">READ: Incentives continue to pour in for Carlos Yulo after Paris triumph</a></div><div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/8/5/house-prepares-incentives-for-carlos-yulo-pinoy-medalists-in-paris-1004">READ: What&#x27;s in store for Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo?</a></div><p>Furthermore, the acclaimed gymnast said it is time to celebrate the feats of Filipino athletes in Paris.</p><p>&quot;Tigilan na po natin &#x27;to, at i-celebrate na lang po natin &#x27;yung mga ginawa po ng paghihirap, pagsa-sakripisyo ng bawat atletang Pilipino dito sa Olympics.&quot;</p><p>In an interview on Sunday, after Carlos won his first gold in the Paris Games, the Yulo matriarch denied the accusations thrown at her and asserted that she has proof to dispel them.</p><p>&quot;&#x27;Yung tungkol sa pera na ninakaw ko, nilustay, winaldas sa luho ko na hindi ko makita sa sarili ko kung nasaan; sinabi ko sa kanila na walang halong katotohanan lahat.

Ganun parin naman kami tulad ng dati nung hindi pa siya nagkakapera, nung nagkapera siya walang nagbago sa lifestyle namin,&quot; she said. </p><p>Through Atty. Raymond Fortun, Angelica urged the public to avoid sharing comments and libelous statements against Carlos that are attributed to the mother’s interviews.</p><p>In a statement, Fortun said all statements attributed to Mrs. Yulo and/or her children, that are &quot;critical of, disparaging or tend to tarnish the accomplishments of her son&quot; are &quot;untrue, fake, and mere products of imagination and fantasy by heretofore unknown individuals.&quot;</p><div><strong> -- Family rift -- </strong></div><div><strong><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:960px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/172294107616120240803-paris-olympics-gymnastics-yulo-AFP.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="Winner Philippines&#x27; Carlos Edriel Yulo reacts as he celebrates during the podium ceremony competes in the artistic gymnastics men&#x27;s floor exercise final during the Paris 2024 Olympic Games at the Bercy Arena in Paris, on August 3, 2024.
