This would be the most reasonable answer:

O + AB = Any A blood type/phenotype

→ A and B are codominant, and O, although it's not recessive, it's less dominant. The image below might help you understand the dominance and result of blood combinations.

Hello!

The mother can be either AA or AO and still produce a child with type AB blood from that father. So the child is probably an O child.

I hope it helps!
