Sumagot si Tom Rodriguez sa inilabas na mga pasabog ng misis niyang si Carla Abellana kaugnay sa nangyari sa kanilang relasyon.
Sa pamamagitan ng manager niyang si Popoy Caritativo, sinabi ni Tom sa kanyang statement na hindi na niya sasabihin ang mga dahilan kung bakit nasira ang pagsasama nila ng asawa pero nakaparami raw kasinungalingan ang nasabi tungkol sa kanya na hindi patas.
Pero inamin niyang naubos ang pera niya nang maloko siya.
Nabanggit din niya na ang ngayon ay final na ang kanilang divorce decree bilang isang American citizen ang actor.
Narito ang buong statement ni Tom na inilabas ng kanyang manager: “I left the Philippines for the US last March 13, with the realization that despite all my efforts, Carla had already given up on our marriage.
“A lot has been said against me but in the end, Carla and I are the only two people who know the truth. I refuse to allow anyone, who only wants to use us and our brokenness, for news.
“It was not a perfect relationship, but we both know how much we loved each other.
“I will no longer dwell on the reasons why our marriage fell apart. So many lies have been said of me which are completely untrue and utterly unfair.
“I may have fallen short as a partner, specially when I lost all my money to someone who preyed on my gullibility, but it must be stressed that at no time did I ever lay a hand on Carla.
“I have accepted her decision that it is time to move forward independent from each other. I have to teach myself how to fall out of love from her. This will be a lonely, painful path that I shall take, but together with my family here in the US, I have the strongest support system.
“I am with people who will never judge and who will only love me unconditionally.
“Now that the divorce decree is final, I truly wish Carla’s birthday wish be granted and that she finds the happiness she is searching for.
“This will be the last you will hear from me on the matter. I have no desire to violate the gag order issued on us and our lawyers.
“I remain grateful to GMA for its patience and understanding and for giving me time to heal, and to my manager and friend Popoy and to Tita Joji (Alonso), for never giving up on me.”
Shocking nga at literal na pasabog ang mga rebelasyon ni Carla tungkol sa mister.
Ikinasal sila noong Oct. 23 pero December pa lang ay umingay na ang isyung hiwalay na sila.
“I was disrespected. I was betrayed. I was lied to. I was used. I was shamed. I was made to look so stupid. Kung sana hanggang dun lang po makakabangon din po ako balang araw,” isang bahagi ng pahayag ni Carla.
