Jake Ejercito and Ellie


Ellie just returned to Siargao with the rest of Andi Eigenmann and Philmar Alipayo's family late in February.

Jake Ejercito travels to Siargao for the first time to meet and pick up his daughter Ellie.

Ellie is the daughter of Jake and Andi Eigenmann. It was in 2016, through a podcast interview with DJ Mo Twister, when Andi's half sister Max confirmed and made public this relationship. Since then, things developed for the better, allowing the ex-couple to share parenting duties.

During the stricter quarantine in 2020, Jake got to spend a few months with Ellie in the city:

His daughter then went under Andi's care once the latter arrived in Manila to celebrate her birthday and prepare for her childbirth:

In February this year, Andi returned to Siargao with her fiancé Philmar Alipayo and her three kids, Ellie, Lilo, and newborn Koa.

However, it seems it's time for Ellie to head back to Manila after Jake announced his arrival in Siargao.

He shared via his Instagram story, “First time in Siargao to collect the offspring!”
