'Kahit Google 'di siya mahanap': Amy Perez unable to locate ex Brix Ferraris for reunion with son

MANILA, Philippines — Amy Perez revealed her and her son, Adi's efforts to locate her ex-husband, singer Brix Ferraris.

The "It's Showtime" host sat down with showbiz columnist Ogie Diaz on his YouTube channel where she talked about raising Adi on her own, getting a second shot at love and locating her ex-husband.

In their conversation about Amy being a mother and raising her firstborn, the host bared how much she struggled with letting her son go so he could live independently.

Adi asked to move out of the house when he turned 21 five years ago.

"May dagok 'yun for me na 'yung anak ko gusto nang mag-solo," she began.

Her mother made her realize that she did exactly the same when she turned 21.

"Mga anak natin, para silang mga saranggola na kailangan mong paliparin. Alam mong dadating 'yung araw na you have to let go of them," Amy said.

She shared that Adi had questions about himself and had been wanting to seek answers.

Ogie and Amy's conversation then went on to the relationship between Adi and Brix.

Amy and Brix, then popular as the front man of South Border, married in 1995. Two years later, Adi was born.

They separated years after but their annulment was finalized only in 2014. In the same year, Amy married radio personality Carlo Castillo. They have two sons, Kyle and Isaiah.

No communication at all

Ogie asked about the relationship between Adi and his estranged father.

“To be honest, wala talaga silang naging relationship. The last time nakita ni Adi ‘yung daddy niya is noong three or four years old siya. Tapos nag-paalam si Brix na magta-Timezone sila. Tinupad niya. And I think during that time na nag-Timezone sila, pinangakuan niyang babalik siya — [pero] hindi naman bumalik si Brix,” she said.
