It looks like there is no end yet to the verbal tussle between DJ Mo Twister and former girlfriend Bunny Paras.

Paras, a former actress who is now based in the United States, is in town to attend the wedding of her friend, television host and actress Cheska Garcia. She, however, found herself entangled yet again in a controversy involving Mo.

Paras and Mo have a nine-year-old daughter, Moira.

Mo disapproved of Paras’ decision to grant media interviews, revive old issues and discuss publicly the health condition of their daughter who was diagnosed with Miller Fisher Syndrome.

"It’s not really good for the health of my daughter… I’ve been in so many issues these past years. It really doesn’t bother me. What bothers me is that parang it just ruins our relationship more and more every time na lumalabas siya," Mo told reporters during the press conference of ABS-CBN News Channel’s new shows on Tuesday.

Paras recently appeared on ABS-CBN’s showbiz talk show "The Buzz" where she appealed to the television and radio host to spend more quality time with their daughter.

Paras cited an instance when Moira was in the Philippines for a summer holiday for two months but only got to see her father three times.

"Sana more quality time. Tumawag ka naman, mag-email ka naman sa kanya. More as a father, i-try mong i-practice naman ‘yon," she said.

To which Mo replied: "’Tawagan mo naman anak mo?’ How? You guys are like dictators in that household."

Mo also got irked when Paras, in her interview on The Buzz, made it appear that he was not involved in the preparations for Moira’s birthday, which will be held in the country next month.

"…. we’re funding this together and setting up together. It’s like I don’t want to be part [of the celebration] and that I don’t care," he said. "Sinabi pa niya she [would invite] TV crews to my daughter’s birthday party, which is a month and three weeks away. It’s like what’s more fun really to you, is it raising a child or raising [her] publicly?"

He also accused Paras of giving "vague and very leading answers" when she was asked if he was financially supporting Moira.

"When they asked her, ‘does Mo support your daughter?’ She said, ‘why don’t you just ask him?’ What are you talking [about]? Of course, I support my daughter…. I know I support my daughter financially. She knows that, my family knows that, her family knows that," he said.

He also clarified that he was not able to get in touch with Paras the moment she arrived in the country because he was in Europe for a whole week.

"Sinabi niya I told her daw she’s the one calling TV shows. I know she’s not calling them, I know they’re calling her but without trying to sound like an a*****e the only reason why they’re interviewing Bunny it’s because of me," he said.

Mo also criticized his former girlfriend for bringing up decade-old issues. He said contrary to reports their relationship is "not as bad as it looks like on TV."

"Next time, when you’re on TV, I know you love being on TV, how about for our daughter’s sake make it look like we’re all right, we’re OK?" he said.

He said Paras reveals information on TV that but these were either "untrue" or "very exaggerated."

On Paras’s fiance Filipino-American boyfriend, Tom, meanwhile, Mo thanked him for taking good care of Moira. He said when he went to the United States he got a chance to hang out with Tom and "he’s a nice guy."
