Jam Ignacio apologizes to fiancée Jellie Aw after she accused him of assault. Jam Ignacio apologized to his fiancée, vlogger and disc jockey Jellie Aw, who accused him of assaulting her.

According to John Consulta’s exclusive report on “24 Oras” Wednesday, the businessman regrets what happened and asked for forgiveness from Jellie and her loved ones.

“Sa mga kapatid, sa mga kaibigan, dito ako haharap sa inyo. Humaharap na humihingi ng taos-puso na sorry. Sorry, sobrang sorry, lalo na sa mommy ni Jellie. Ma, sorry, ma. Alam niyo ‘yan na mahal na mahal ko si Jellie,” he said.

Per Ignacio, the whole thing stemmed from a simple misunderstanding.

“Sa simpleng hindi pagkakaunawaan, siguro may halo na rin sigurong pagod sa maghapon na lakad namin.

Kumbaga, tao lang din siguro ako, kumbaga baka napuno lang din siguro ako na hindi ko sinasabi na tama pero hindi ko para i-tolerate na gawin ulit. Humihingi ako ng tawad. Pasensya na talaga.”

Addressing his fiancée, Ignacio promised that the incident won’t happen again and asked her to fix things between them in private.

“Pinapangako ko sa ‘yo na hindi na mauulit ‘to and then sana bigyan mo ng pagkakataon na ayusin natin ‘tong pareho nang pribado na sa ‘ting dalawa. Alam ko naman na alam mo din na mahal natin ang isa’t isa. Madami tayong gustong gawin at pangarap na sana maayos natin at matupad natin,” he said.

“Alam mo na gusto ko ikaw na ‘yung makasama ko talaga. Alam mo’ yan na may plano tayo bumuo ng pamilya. Tuparin natin, hon. Nagmamakaawa ako sa ‘yo, sana ayusin natin ‘to,” he added.

GMA Integrated News is currently trying to reach Jellie Aw for comment.

The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) said Monday that it has issued a subpoena against Ignacio over the alleged assault.

On February 13, Jellie Aw filed a complaint before the NBI against Ignacio for alleged abuse after a photo of her bloodied and bruised face made the rounds online.

Jellie has said that she is willing to forgive Ignacio but he must be held accountable for what he did to her.

The alleged abuse happened while they were on the expressway on February 12. According to her, Ignacio pulled her hair while he was driving. He allegedly punched her that caused a blood clot on her eye. The physical assault also left her with a chipped tooth and bruised upper lip.
