Amid growing speculation over the paternity of the late Mohbad’s son, Liam, close associate Spending has stepped forward to publicly debunk the swirling rumours, setting the record straight in a strongly worded response.
The controversy ignited on social media after a post comparing the physical features of Spending and Liam went viral. The alleged resemblance triggered a wave of comments and heated conversations, with some online users insinuating that Spending might be the boy’s biological father.
“The speculation gained momentum after a post was shared online, highlighting a striking resemblance between Spending and Liam, which sparked heated debates and scrutiny over the child’s paternity.”
In an attempt to quell the rumours and clear his name, Spending took to his Instagram story with a candid message. He vehemently denied having any romantic or intimate ties with Mohbad’s widow, and called on bloggers and online commenters to refrain from spreading damaging misinformation.
In a statement shared on his Instagram story, Spending firmly dismissed the allegations, calling for an end to the baseless claims. He emphasised that he has no connection to Liam’s mother, expressing frustration over the spread of false narratives, and urged bloggers to stop fuelling the rumours.”
Spending wrote: “I’ve been seeing several bloggers insinuating I’m Liam’s father. This is not a joke for real!! To set the record straight, I’m not his father and I never had any affectionate relationship with his mother. Y’all need to stop spreading these false narratives.”
Going a step further to prove his innocence, Spending expressed his willingness to undergo a DNA test if necessary. He added:
“I’m happy to have a DNA test done if required.”
The paternity of Mohbad’s son has remained a topic of public interest since the singer’s passing, with several individuals calling for clarity and transparency. Spending’s statement may serve as a key development in calming the storm though whether a DNA test will be pursued remains to be seen.
For now, the ally of the late singer is taking a firm stand: he has nothing to hide, and no ties to the child in question.
