Just when it seemed the Barretto family drama had already hit its boiling point, the flames have only grown higher.

After Estrella “Inday” Barretto’s two-part tell-all interview with Ogie Diaz -- packed with allegations against former son-in-law Raymart Santiago and emotionally loaded commentary about her daughters -- Marjorie Barretto has now stepped into the spotlight, issuing her own rebuttal.

And she’s not holding back.

In a now viral social media post, Marjorie rejected her mother’s claims that she is distant, dismissive, and cold. But never mind that. What hurt most, she implied, wasn’t just the accusations but the timing. Their family is still mourning the death of their brother Mito.

“Was this really necessary to drag our grieving, non-showbiz family members into a new scandal while everyone is still mourning my brother’s death? Or am I once again damage control?”

Our question exactly: Why, oh why, Mommy Inday?

To those seeking answers, Marjorie allowed for some hints.

She accused her mother of distorting the truth simply to maintain the status quo.

Marjorie even claimed Inday discouraged reconciliation between siblings: “You begged me to never fix things with my sisters so you won't be left out.”

Like mother, like daughter? Well, these are jaw-dropping statements indeed, very much akin to what Inday peddled prior and exactly the kind that keep the Barretto family saga endlessly combustible.

If Inday’s interview was a firestarter, Marjorie’s public response is gasoline.

So, where will these all lead to? Who knows?

Marjorie has made it clear she will no longer quietly swallow the narrative others write for her.

“When someone close to you distorts the truth in a very public way, it creates an ache that my silence cannot hold anymore.”

The result? A new rift widening before the public’s eyes.

A family feud once centered on Marjorie, Gretchen and Claudine is spiraling into a full-scale Barretto civil war — with social media the battleground.

Who’s next?
