However, if I understand correctly that the British boyfriend is the legal father of a child in the Philippines, and has now abandoned the child, then your friend will most likely have a right to claim 'Child Maintenance'. Here is a quote about this

But she should take some time to set out the details of her claim, the entire situation etc first of all.

Realistically, she should first determine if the boyfriend has actually left her, or whether something has happened.
And of course if there is any uncertainty as to who the father is or he denighs it a simple dna test will deal with that
