The untimely death of iconic Filipino folk singer Freddie Aguilar left fans devastated and the nation in mourning. But just as the country began to say its goodbyes to the man behind “Anak,” a wave of controversy began to ripple—one not rooted in his music, but in what happened during his final days.
As the official cause of death—cardiac arrest—was confirmed by hospital authorities, public curiosity shifted to his personal life. In particular, all eyes turned to his young wife, Sittie Mariam, who had been by his side until his last breath. Known for keeping a low profile, Sittie had mostly stayed out of the public spotlight. But now, she was at the center of a storm.
A recently surfaced CCTV footage from a private establishment captured a moment that stunned netizens. The video, reportedly recorded just days before Freddie’s hospitalization, showed Sittie and Freddie out together in what was supposed to be a quiet evening walk. But what the camera caught was anything but peaceful.
The Footage That Sparked Outrage
The footage appears to show a brief confrontation between the couple. At first glance, the interaction seems minor, but viewers quickly picked up on Sittie’s raised voice and agitated gestures. What truly caused outrage, however, was the moment when she appeared to walk away from Freddie, leaving him standing alone near the street.
Although Freddie did not appear to be in immediate distress, online commenters interpreted her actions as disrespectful—especially given his fragile health condition at the time. Many argued that even a simple walk should have been handled with care, considering Freddie’s age and medical history.
Public Reaction: Sympathy Turns to Suspicion
The footage quickly went viral on social media platforms. What began as a tribute space for the late singer turned into a battleground of opinions. While some defended Sittie, suggesting that the clip might be out of context, a majority expressed disappointment. Hashtags like #JusticeForFreddie and #BakitMoIniwan began trending on Twitter and TikTok.
Adding fuel to the fire, a few insiders from Aguilar’s close circle hinted that Freddie had been emotionally burdened in the weeks leading up to his death. Some even claimed that the artist had confided in them about tensions at home—though none offered specifics.
The Wife Speaks Out
In response to the controversy, Sittie Mariam released a short statement on her social media page:

“Freddie and I had a complicated relationship, like any couple. But I never left him in the way people are imagining. The clip that is circulating is painful for me to watch, but it is not the full story.”
She also called for the public to remember Freddie not through gossip, but through his music and legacy.
Still, the damage had been done. Sittie has since limited comments on her posts and has not appeared publicly since the video’s circulation.
A Legacy Overshadowed?
Freddie Aguilar’s contributions to music and culture are undeniable. But in the age of viral media and fast judgment, even a national treasure can find their final days marred by scandal.
As investigations continue and more voices come forward, the truth behind the final chapter of Freddie Aguilar’s life remains blurred. Whether misunderstood or mishandled, the actions of those closest to him are now under the microscope.
What remains is a painful lesson in how public figures—no matter how legendary—are never free from the shadows cast by those around them.
