Cebu-based beauty queen Chella Falconer dispelled allegations that she is the mystery woman of Tom Rodriguez, moments after the latter shared a glimpse of his family.
Rodriguez has been making headlines since posting photos of his family for the first time on Thursday, June 5, including his new partner and son, Korben. However, he opted not to have their faces revealed.
Coincidentally, Falconer revealed that she is now a mother to a one-year-old baby named Trevor on the same day, although she didn’t disclose the father of her child.
“Born on March 02, 2024. Meet Trevor. For a while, I kept this part of my heart quietly, out of love and protection. Today, I’m finally ready to share with you the greatest gift life has ever given me. This is Trevor, my son, my light, and my strength,” she said on Instagram.

The seeming coincidence has led Falconer to deny any romantic involvement with Rodriguez on her Instagram Story on the same day.
“Hi, everyone! Just to clarify, because comments are getting crazy. I’m not Tom Rodriguez’s girl, so let’s stop spreading false rumors,” she wrote.

Falconer was supposed to represent Cebu Province at the Miss Universe Philippines 2025 pageant, but dropped out in April 2025. She didn’t reveal that she was already a mom at the time.
The Kapuso star, on the other hand, remained mum about the identity of his new partner.
Rodriguez was married to Carla Abellana in October 2021 after seven years of dating. However, they decided to part ways months later. Their marriage was eventually settled in the US, and it was recognized by the Philippine court in June 2024.
In November, the actor revealed that he is a father to a baby named Korben, but remained firm on keeping the identity of his new partner hidden. /ra
