Susan Roces on rumors Grace is Marcos’ daughter
Susan Roces finally opened up on the urban legend alleging Grace Poe is Rosemarie Sonora’s daughter by the late Ferdinand Marcos.
In an interview in Iloilo on Feb. 16 while campaigning with Grace Poe, she said, “’Yung sinasabi nilang anak si Grace ngkapatid ko, bakit ko ipagkakaila kung totoo? Kasama ko ang kapatid ko, araw at gabing mga panahong iyon. Hindi ko siya nakitang nagdalang-tao. That was 1968, the year I got married,”
Grace was born in 1968.
According to Susan, Rosemarie was that time with a show on television. That’s the truth, she said, and she can’t do anything if people wouldn’t believe what she says.
“Ay naku, alam mo kaya ganito ang attitude namin diyan kahit anong paliwanag nakaraan na ang maraming taon, lumaki na si Grace; she’s past 40,” Susan said when asked if Grace didn’t like to ask the Marcos kin to submit to a DNA test.
