Shalani Soledad---single mother?


We got a lot of buzz from residents of Valenzuela and other people when I posted this entry about Shalani Soledad, the fiance of Senator Noynoy Aquino over at Filipino News Network (see the entry at http://filipinonewsnetwork.com/2009/08/13/whos-noynoys-girl-a-closer-look-at-shalani-soledad/). I never thought that entries about Shalani would actually get 182 (http://filipinonewsnetwork.com/2009/09/12/shalani-soledad-noynoy-aquino-and-the-people-of-valenzuela-politics-and-intriques/) comments. This is even bigger than FilipinoVoices.com.


Initially, I wrote a very nice entry about Shalani. Yet, when responses and comments were pouring in, information suddenly appeared denying most of the facts about Shalani. For example, an alleged close family friend of the Soledads said that Shalani's real surname is not Soledad but the surname of her mother. There were malicious insinuations from commenters that Shalani had a Saudi for a father and so on. Likewise, there was information about Carlo, the brother of Shalani, having a spat with her and the alleged manipulations done by her uncle to Shalani, and so on and so forth.


What was damning however, was the information that some residents gave us---that Shalani Soledad reportedly sired a child out of wedlock.


Yes, and people say the father is Atty. Jimboy (some call him Jiboy) Cabochan, now connected with the Bureau of Customs


I know Jimboy, he's a fraternity brother of mine and he's a kababayan. His family hails from the same hometown--San Miguel Bulacan. And the Cabochans are political heavyweights in that side of Bulacan. (QC Councilor Atty. Bong Suntay and Jiboy Cabochan are cousins.) The Cabochans even founded a fraternity at the San Beda College of Law, purportedly the biggest there---Lambda Rho Beta.


I don't know, however, if this out of wedlock thing is true. I lost Jiboy's number. Jiboy graduated from his law studies at San Beda College of Law sometime in the late 1990's. He's a certified ladies' man but I don't exactly know if he has a son with Shalani.


If this is true, then, these information are damaging not just to Shalani, but to Noynoy Aquino. Anyway, nothing wrong if Shalani has a child out of wedlock, since she and Jiboy are not married anyway. So, there's no legal impediment for a marriage between her and Noynoy.


Now that Shalani Soledad is now a public figure, due to her association with Noynoy, it is in the best interest of Shalani to explain these things. These malicious rumours could ruin not just Shalani's, but also Noynoy's career.


Another accusation against Shalani---the Valenzuela councilor reportedly LIED about her academic and personal information record.


Ms. Soledad---could you please explain all of these things para maliwanagan ang taumbayan?

  1. as a public figure I think Ms. Shalani should come out and explain all this but at the same time she should not be scared cause kung wala naman siyang ginagawang masama, there's nothing to worry right.

  3. EQ,

    My friend, for me, this is nothing. As I said, the reason why I wrote it here is simply to allow Shalani to finally put this thing to rest. AT FNN, people are saying bad things about her and I just want to air this in this site para mas makita.

    Of course, there is no "virgin seal" for our First Ladies. In fact, I doubt kung merong virgin na naging First Lady. Baka First Gentleman na virgin, meron? :-)

  4. Dapat magpaliwanang si Shalani kung talagang hindi totoo ang mga lumabas na issue na ito sa kanya. Paano nga naman pala lalabas si shalani eh hindi nya mai explain ang issue na ito dahil totoo! I'm from Valenzuela at kilala ko personally si Shalani at tito Mon nya. manggagamit talaga sila at mukha silang Pera.tutal mahilig ka naman lumabas sa Tv bakit di mo ipaliwanag sa Tv ang mga issue na naglalabasan sayo? kaya dapat shalani lumabas kana o magpa media ka ulit at i explain mo lahat ng tao ang issue sayo kung wala ka talagang itinatagong Bulok sa sarili mo.ipaliwanang mo ang pag work mo sa Radisson Sas Hotel kuwait nung 17 yrs old ka pa lang. dare namin sayo yan harapin mo ang mga issue na ito sayo..

  5. Why don't you leave the lady alone? What she does or has done is none of anybody's business. Let he who has no sin cast the first stone.

  8. So what if Shalani is a single mother? Is that a problem? It will be however if it happens to be true and she denies it. My suggestion to Shalani, if it's not true,dont bother making any explanation. If it is true, admit it openly and unashamedly and no need to elaborate.
