Sarah Lahbati and Richard Gutierrez need not talk about the current state of their marriage.

Their respective moms are already doing it for them.

Just recently, Sarah’s mom Esther, let slip a mouthful about it on social media, revealing her daughter and Richard have agreed to simply “co-parent” relating their children, Zion and Kai.

She also shared that the kids spent Christmas with their mom and not with the Gutierrez’s.

She posted: “Na kay Sarah sina zion at Kai...Co parenting sila ng tatay.”

This runs counter to Richard’s mom Anabelle’s earlier declaration that all of them as with his son’s kids will fly to Japan for the holidays.

"Sama-sama buong pamilya ko... minus one lang," said Anabelle in an interview with ABS-CBN News.

She didn’t name the individual but many believe she was pertaining to Sarah.

Asked about Sarah she said, “Hindi ko siya kinakausap. Wala akong time makipag-usap sa kanya."

Note Anabelle didn’t confirm nor deny rumors about Sarah and Richard having already parted ways, but she said more than enough admitting that her son has been living with her for some time already.

She related, "Si Richard, nasa bahay ko ngayon, one month na. Pero unti-unti siyang lumilipat ng gamit sa Alabang. Lilipat na siya after Christmas." 

In a separate social media post, Esther made clear her support for Sarah, saying, "We Love you so much Anak. No one can hurt you! I am ready to stand for you. Being a human being I respect everyone's rights."

This is not the first time the two mothers didn’t see eye to eye.

Back in 2014, Esther made public that she was hurt with the way Anabelle treated her at Zion’s first birthday party.

It isn’t clear what it was exactly that Anabelle did but it all ended a year later with the two exchanging gifts on Christmas.
