Three years after former girlfriend Andi Eigenmann gave birth to Adrianna Gabriellie or Ellie, his reported daughter, Albie Casino finally broke his silence on the issue.

The Kapatid actor said in an interview after the presscon of TV5’s “A House Full of Hunks” on Thursday, February 5, that he doubted Andi’s claims that he’s the father of her child.

“From the start, there was always me and Jake Ejercito (Andi’s former boyfriend). There was always the two of us. I don’t know why everyone thinks it was me. There is no concrete evidence. She just said it was me. She never gave me a DNA test. I don’t know why people automatically assume it was me.”

On Bret Jackson

Albie refused to comment on the possibility of working with Andi in a soap opera. But he’s open to having a project with fellow Kapatid actor Bret Jackson, who admits he admires Andi.

“Bret and me, we’re okay. He’s a good friend. There are things I’d like to talk to him about when I see him again.”

Andi, however, is not one of the topics Albie would like to discuss with Bret.

“I don’t wanna influence Bret because I know he likes Andi. If that’s what he likes, good for him.”

School and showbiz

Albie promised this is the first and last time he will talk about the controversy.

He would rather focus on Wattpad Presents “A House Full of Hunks,” where Albie stars with Jasmine Curtis, Charlie Sutcliffe, Sandino Martin and John Spainhour.

Albie plays one of Jasmine’s five flatmates who teach her character a thing or two about the real world.

It will be recalled that Albie left ABS-CBN after the controversy. He went back to school and is happy TV5 “understands my schedule.”

“A House Full of Hunks” airs Monday to Friday, 9 pm.
