Most filipinos are not mixed. The spaniards in the country in the colonial period are not as numerous as the chinese. Both of them have no major impact on the majority.

His dad is a mixture of Spanish and Filipino. Most likely his dad is from the Phillipines, but has a lot of Spanish blood, but he could be like Enrique Iglesias and be half Spanish, half Filipino.
