Claudine Barretto Files a TRO Against Raymart Santiago!

The Optimum Star Claudine Barretto is again on the limelight. It's not because of her showbiz comeback for a new movie or teleserye. Rather of another fight with husband Raymart Santiago.

The actress has filed a Temporary Protection Order against Raymart Santiago on Monday July 29, 2013 in Marikina Regional Trial Court proving the rift with her husband.

Claudine and her attorney didn't give a full detail of why the actress filed a TRO against her husband. But on the statement of the actress and her attorney, they gave a glimpse of what the issue is all about.

Here is the Atty. Ferdinand Topacio's statement courtesy of ABS-CBN News:

"She has been under intense and tremendous emotional stress. Mula pa po noong Sabado nung pinatawag niya po ako. Actually nagdadalawang isip po talaga siya. Ang pag-file po nitong TPO ay hers and only hers.

Kami ay umaasa na ito ay agarang maaprubahan. Ang hinihiling namin dito ay hindi makalapit si Mr. Raymart Santiago sa aking kliyente at sa mga bata, na hindi po magkaroon ng actual physical threat.
Marami po kaming hinihiling doon sapagkat napagkaalaman namin na may mga armas na pag-aari, high-powered firearms si Mr. Santiago at ito po ay kasama sa TPO pati ang pagbibigay ng suporta.

Sana ay bigyan natin ng privacy si Ms. Barretto dahil ito po ay it was a very painful decision for her to make. Talagang namilipit siya ng husto, physically, emotionally, mentally bago niya napagdesisyunan ito."  

Claudine even graced an interview with DZMM, the radio arm of her former home network ABS-CBN. Here is the transcript of her interview:

"Siyempre may pinagdaraanan at hindi okay. But as far as trying my best to be okay for my children, to be strong for my children and for my family.

Ayaw ko talagang magsalita. I am not ready to talk. I don't want to talk. I just want to be protected. I just want my children to be protected. Yun lang masasabi ko."
