Detained former president Rodrigo Duterte reportedly has 13 girlfriends in Davao City, according to his son, Rep. Paolo Duterte, who relayed the ex-leader’s message urging them to find new partners “with plenty of credit cards.”
The revelation came during an interview in The Hague shared by former presidential spokesman Harry Roque.
Vice Mayor Sebastian Duterte acknowledged all the women in his father’s life, saying none were above or below the others, including Duterte’s former wife, Elizabeth Zimmerman.
Meanwhile, Duterte’s daughter, Veronica, recently called out a woman allegedly pretending to be his romantic partner to gain access to him in prison.
The Duterte family revelations come amid a continuing war between Vice President Sara Duterte and Malacañang over her foreign trips and public accountability.
