In 2019, he ran again for congressman of the same district but lost to incumbent and his stepmother Lorna Silverio.[5][6]
Personal life
editIn 2006, he claimed that he was allegedly beaten up and forcibly dragged out of the Silverio's’ Urdaneta Village house in Makati by his father's bodyguards. In 2008, Ricky Silverio filed a grave coercion case against his father. He is fighting for the ownership rights of the said house.[7] The said house was sold to Chemphil chairman Antonio “Tony” Garcia and Iñigo Zobel in 2011.[8]
