Almost everyone knows Gaile Francesca Magalona after her mother, Abegail Rait, recently appeared following 15 years of silence. This became the talk of newspapers and social media after reporters discovered and posted on social media a scene from a vlog by Boss Toyo, also known as Pinoy Pawnstars. This show is based on the concept of an American show called Pawn Stars, where they purchase items from famous people or rare collectibles with high value and sell them to collectors interested in owning them, often fetching millions. This led to the emergence of Pinoy Pawn Stars, where they also bought collector’s items from famous individuals or artists.
This is where the story of Abegail Rait and Gaile Francesca Magalona began. Many are aware that the owner of Pinoy Pawnstars, Boss Toyo, is also a rapper and a dedicated fan of Pinoy Master Rapper Francis M. As a result, he collects memorabilia and items associated with the late rapper.
Pinoy Pawnstars also featured Boss Toyo’s purchase of a “3 stars in the sun” white polo shirt that was worn by Francis M, Gloc 9, and Chito Miranda during a jamming session. One of these shirts was even acquired from a shop where merchandise with the “3 stars in the sun” design, established by Francis M as his trademark, was being sold, and Pia Magalona was overseeing it.
Due to this, Abegail Rait decided to sell one of the memories left to her by Francis M, a jersey that we’ve seen Francis M wearing multiple times. The jersey contained pictures, and dedications from Francis M, including their wedding photo and the photo of him holding their then 2-month-old daughter, Francesca. This solidified the connection between Francis M, Abegail, and Francesca.
However, Pia Magalona remained silent about the issue until evidence emerged suggesting that she and Francis M were not legally married. There were also claims and alleged photos of their supposed wedding. This created many questions and mysteries among netizens, alongside Francesca’s Facebook posts showing her selling “3 stars in the sun” merchandise, with Pia Magalona herself managing the shop. This raises the question of whether Francesca’s merchandise sale had Pia and her children’s approval or if there was communication between the two sides. These are all speculations, but an attempt to uncover the truth behind this is being made.
