Controversy
On 7 September 2016, a 30-year-old man named Ario Kiswinar openly admitted to being the unrecognized son of Mario Teguh, on the TV show Hitam Putih. Ario showed his birth certificate, family card, and a copy of his parents' marriage certificate. The birth certificate states that Ario was born on 29 April 1986 to a father named Sis Maryono Teguh and Aryani Soenarto. Responding to this confession, Mario Teguh asked to do a DNA test in an interview with Kompas TV on 9 September 2016. The results of the DNA test conducted by Ario Kiswinar Teguh and Mario Teguh have come out, this was announced by the Head of Public Relations of the Metro Jaya Police, Senior Commissioner Awi Setiyono on Friday, 25 November 2016. From the results of the DNA test, Ario Kiswinar Teguh was declared a child biological father of Sis Maryono Teguh with a previous marriage to Aryani Soenarto. However, it seems that Linna Teguh, Mario Teguh's current wife, finds it difficult to accept the results of the DNA test.
