Marjorie Barretto on Julia Barretto, Gerald Anderson wearing same jersey number
MANILA, Philippines — Kapamilya actress Julia Barretto’s mother, Marjorie Barretto, has clarified that the identical jersey numbers of Julia and Gerald Anderson at the recent Star Magic All-Star game was just a coincidence.
Marjorie posted on her Instagram account a video of her kissing Julia on the forehead after her daughter’s volleyball game against Kim Chiu’s team.
“Good game Juls! Congratulations #TeamKimChiu What a heart stopping game!” she captioned the post.
But in the comment section, an Instagram user commented that Julia sported the same number as Gerald.
“NUMBER 3 rin si @andersongerald <3,” the user commented.
Marjorie clarified that Julia wears jersey number 3 since her high school volleyball varsity days.
“Let me correct this before the story gets big and out of hand again. Number 3 has always been Julia's jersey number since her high school volleyball varsity days. No special meaning. <3,” Marjorie replied to the Instagram user.
In his past interviews, Gerald, who plays for the Imus Bandera in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL) Lakan Cup, explained that he chose the number 3 because of his idol – NBA Hall of Famer Allen Iverson.
