Speaking to reporters in Zamboanga City, Eumir Marcial belied wife Princess’s allegations that he used their savings to build a house for his alleged mistress.
That is not true… first of all, our joint account is under her control. She currently holds the title deed to our house in Manila and our properties, and what she said that I am building a house for another woman isn’t true. I can’t even build a house for my own parents.

The Tokyo Olympic bronze medalist admitted he could not afford to provide his parents with a house and lot after his first-round exit from the Paris Olympics.
Furthermore, he added that the issue with his wife should be personal.
I felt like this was when love is not the one she wants from me, because this was supposed to be a personal matter. Why should the media be involved?

If we were able to amicably part ways, I would have calmly settled things with her. I can split the properties in Manila. Why doesn’t she want that? Why did she have to air her grievances to the media and ask for sympathy from the people?
The player said his friends and her family know that it came to this point because of her attitude.
