Social media was abuzz after Meray Yamada, the ex-boyfriend of influencer Bea Borres, confirmed that he is the father of her soon-to-arrive baby. In a now-deleted TikTok comment, the sales vice president of iShip Logipack Incorporated—founded by his parents—publicly acknowledged paternity and vowed to take responsibility.
“Things may not have worked between Bea and I, but I never said I didn’t want to be there for our baby,” Yamada wrote. “I may not have handled our situation the best as of late, but walking away has never been an option for me.”
He further expressed his determination to be present in his child’s life, saying, “I’m here. And I’m going to do whatever it takes to be the best father I can be.”
While Bea had teased in her vlog that she would reveal her baby’s gender soon, Meray appeared to preempt the announcement by referring to the child as “my daughter” in his comment. This revelation sparked speculation and mixed reactions online, with some netizens criticizing the timing of his post.
“My daughter deserves nothing but the best and I will work every day to give her the life, love, and support she deserves,” Meray continued. “I will do better. For as long as I am accepted into our child’s life, ready or not, I will answer the call with my whole heart.”
Bea, who announced her pregnancy on Tuesday, August 12, admitted that motherhood was something she had not planned for at this stage in her life. The 22-year-old content creator shared her excitement despite feeling unprepared.
“I promise you and to everyone that gets to watch this in the future that I’d really, really be the best mom,” Bea said in her vlog. “It’s true that I’m not ready, but I don’t think anyone or anything prepares you for motherhood.”
Her pregnancy reveal video quickly gained traction, with thousands of supporters sending well-wishes and encouragement. However, the latest development involving Meray’s statement has added a new layer of public intrigue to her journey into motherhood.
Whether the two will reconcile or remain apart, both have made clear their intentions to prioritize their child’s well-being. For now, fans and followers are awaiting Bea’s official gender reveal—and perhaps more insight into how the two plan to navigate parenthood together.
