ON SATURDAY, October 19, Nicole Barretto accused her aunt, Gretchen Barretto, of stealing her “boyfriend” Charlie “Atong” Ang.

Her revelations have suddenly made Nicole a main character in this long-running reality pamilya serye.

Sisters Gretchen, 49, Marjorie, 45, and Claudine Barretto, 40, have been getting into noisy quarrels over simmering issues in the past decade and a half, and this has ultimately divided the whole clan, including the matriarch Estrella “Inday” Barretto, and the other siblings Mito, 59, Michelle, 58, Joaquin “J.J.,” 57, and Gia, 50.

This time, the war is Marjorie against Claudine and Gretchen.

It was triggered during the wake of their father, Miguel Alvir Barretto, who died on Tuesday, October 15.

It would have been an occasion for the sisters to set aside their differences, and maybe reconcile, out of respect for their late father.

But instead, their feud took a bitter turn. On Wednesday night, October 16, Gretchen and Marjorie reportedly engaged in a catfight in front of President Rodrigo Duterte at the wake held at the Heritage Memorial Park in Taguig City.

The incident sparked a blowup of deep-seated anger and long-held grudges of other family members, among whom was Alexandra Nicole Barretto, 26.

Nicole is the daughter of J.J., and niece of Claudine, Marjorie, and Gretchen. During the wake of the Barretto patriarch, Nicole allegedly tried to slap her aunt Gretchen.

Nicole clarified to a netizen on Saturday, October 19, that she did not attack her aunt at the wake and was merely trying to protect Marjorie from Gretchen.

Nicole’s next statements also created a stir on social media.

She accused Gretchen of “stealing her boyfriend,” businessman Charlie “Atong” Ang, 62.

Gretchen fought back and said it was Nicole who “stole Atong from her aunt Claudine.”

On Sunday, October 20, Atong clarified his alleged affairs with Nicole, Claudine, and Gretchen.

The businessman denied any romantic relationship with either Gretchen or Claudine, but said he sent Nicole to high school.

Nicole’s revelations have suddenly made her a main character in this reality pamilya serye that is now, naturally, being followed by netizens.
