Matet de Leon slams mother Nora Aunor after competing with her business: ‘I feel like a traitor’

Actress and businesswoman Matet de Leon aired her frustration on social media last Sunday, December 4, after she felt betrayed by her adoptive mother, veteran actress Nora Aunor.

Matet expressed her disbelief following her mom’s actions, revealing that she was asked to promote a product that was directly competing with hers.

On Instagram, Matet showed her mother’s product as well as hers so that her followers would know why she felt frustrated over the situation.

“Would you do this to your children? HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER. HOW? How can I do that now? Oh, I AM AN ADOPTED. One night, I was told that I should just resell my mother’s products,” she shared.

The actress couldn’t believe that Nora would do such a thing as her mother knew she sells the exact same product.

Matet revealed that Nora reasoned out that she has been doing financially well due to the number of shows she gets that’s why she decided to sell the same product as her daughter’s.

“We’re struggling to sell. Why all of a sudden, I was just surprised, my mom released a direct competitor to my product. She knew I had a product like that,” she said.

“I have a lot of tapings. What do you think I should do now? What would be a good thing to do? If you have children, WOULD YOU DO THIS TO YOUR CHILDREN,” she added.

The 39-year-old actress went live on YouTube to further explain her side, particularly why she felt betrayed by her own family.

“Instead of supporting me, instead of saying ‘go son!’ it wasn’t like ‘I’m better than you,’ is that it? I don’t really know what [his] reason was. Is [he] trying to show me that he’s more famous, better, and has more fans? So more people will buy? I’m not really sure. This is my opinion, my feeling, I just think so,” she said.

“I don’t even know her products/ I don’t care. What I do care about is what she did. She sent it to me, parang ‘Look, what I got here!’ Parang ganun ‘yung ginawa eh. So weird,” she continued.

Matet went on to share different experiences she had with the Filipino superstar growing up as an adoptive daughter.

Despite the awkward situation that happened between them, Nora said she still loves her mom.
