Actor Xander Ford asked the netizens to spare his family over the criticisms he’s receiving.

In an interview on Get Wrecked Show, Xander whose real name is Marlou Arizala said that he’s already used to receiving bad comments from the netizens.

However, he couldn’t hide his disappointment because some of the netizens were even involving his family in their criticisms against him.

“Sanay naman ako sa trashtalk eh. ‘Yun lang yung papakiusap ko sa ibang tao na sana kung ta-trashtalkin niyo ‘ko, okay lang na trashtalkin ninyo po ako, na ako na lang kasi sanay na ako sa ganong mga kalakaran eh,” said Xander.

“Pero ‘yun lang please ko po sa inyo, sana huwag ninyo na lang pong idamay ‘yung magiging pamilya ko po kasi siyempre walang alam ‘yung anak ko eh. Isipin niyo paano pag lumabas siya tapos maririnig niya sa ibang tao ”di ba tatay ka nung panget, tatay ka nung ano’ sana ‘yun lang, kahit konting respeto lang.

“Siyempre, tao din naman yun eh. Kumbaga ‘di niya naman ginusto na maging bunga siya ng pagmamahalan namin ng asawa ko… ‘yung girlfriend ko eh. So sana sa anak ko na lang, bigyan ninyo na lang siya ng respeto, kahit ako na lang.” he added.

Xander is expecting a baby with his partner Gena Mago.

In 2020, Xander received criticism after his ex-girlfriend Ysah Cabrejas made serious accusations against him.

The said accusations forced Xander to be put under custody by the authorities.
