John also revealed how it feels being a father to and raising four daughters and a son. “Masakit sa ulo. I’m taking it one day at a time” said John while laughing. He added, “But don't get me wrong Kapamilya, ang babait ng mga anak ko. I’m so blessed and I’m so happy and I’m so proud of them. Siyempre, inevitable naman yung magkaka-boyfriend sila, mag-aasawa sila but parati kong sinasabi I’m a jealous father and they know that.”
Asked how he shows his jealousy, John revealed, “Kasi ako iba e, lalo na yung panganay kong si Inah, ‘pag nakikita kong may kasama, sabi ko anak ko yan, bakit may kasamang iba yan at may holding hands pa, anak ko yan brad… para bang yung attachment ko sa anak ko na you’re mine, so yun ang mahirap i-let go.”
John admitted to host Boy Abunda that part of his being possessive as a father is his worry that his daughter will end up with a man like him. “’Wag naman yung masyadong katulad ko. Yung mga ibang parte lang.”
John was also honest enough to say, “I don't think they’re friends but they’re civil and that's good enough.” John is also open to working with the two women on a project.
John also made a statement regarding the child abuse case his friend Willie Revillame is embroiled in and he said, “I think the kid wasn't abused.”
