“She’s a Queen with a little bit of savage.”

Ang quotation na ito na paborito ng strong women ang photo post ni Kris Aquino sa Instagram kahapon, sa pagpalag niya sa pagsasabit sa asawa ng kanyang Ate Ballsy na si Eldon Cruz sa multibillion-peso road right-of-way scam.

Kamakalawa, nauna nang sinabi ng anak ng mag-asawa na si Jiggy Cruz na “absurd and ridiculous” ang pagdadawit sa ama sa P8.7-billion road right-of-way scam at idinagdag na peke ang pirma nito sa sulat na ipinakita ng testigo at ng Department of Justice (DOJ) nitong Lunes.

“This is a simple, CLEAR & REAL message,” simula sa caption ng IG post ni Kris. “In our family, I love my siblings.

BUT I believe it is obvious -- my Ate is my FAVORITE. By Ate I mean our eldest, we only have 1 Ate, everyone else is first name basis only. I could go into a super long story, but this is just an example of my life’s truth -- come what may, even at my worst -- she still loved me. It’s not a secret I was disowned, but when I gave birth to Kuya Josh she was my 1 sibling who was there in the hospital.

“That’s just how she is -- she has loved me unconditionally. No judgment, just a reassurance that I’d never be alone because she always believed I’d manage to right my life’s wrongs -- that is FAITH.

“So this is me saying -- HURT HER by spreading more unfounded lies about her & her husband and you will really push me to my very worst. I mean it when I say for my Ate I will take a bullet. Or worse, make the worst nightmare of all Aquino haters come true.”

Pagkaraan ng ilang oras, umani ng mahigit 9,000 likes at maraming komento ang post na ito.

On the lighter side, masayang ibinalita ni Kris kahapon sa kanyang IG account na siya ang cover girl para sa December issue ng SM Shop Mag at ang pagpunta niya sa Singapore kasama ang kanyang team para sa assessment at strategic meeting with Google/YouTube at Facebook/Instagram.

“Gave the GO SIGNAL -- I could post the whole picture. I’m their Christmas cover girl (issue will be out December 10) & I had a great time discussing my favorite stores in @smsupermalls (my sons & I get to go to Aura & Megamall most often), we also did a lot of videos for uploading online including my version of Kris Kringle.

“Special thanks to the Hinge Inquirer team & my KCAP team- this was a “MAGAAN” collaboration & I look forward to many more projects w/ all these stylish, innovative, & DEDICATED people. Home at last, traffic was tolerable- I am rewarding myself w/ a late dinner of Pinoy food my Ate sent over!”

Samantala, nabanggit din ni Kris ang tungkol sa mga ginagawang kalye ngayon na dahilan sa kaliwa’t kanang trapik.

“Have you ever been written off? I have -- on several occasions & over several decades. And truth is -- it hurt like hell. But I wasn’t raised to indulge in self-pity. And I am a MOTHER, responsible for the emotional, physical, and financial well-being of 2 boys I love more than LIFE.

“So doors, roads, and avenues closed. But, ALLELUIA, God bless the internet! Because the digital age is upon us & because of this, the online skyway opened up for me; the one asset I have that works so well in this medium is AUTHENTICITY.

“Today my small team that’s young enough to fervently believe that there are still many YESes coming our way will fly to Singapore for our 2017 assessment & 2018 planning.

“And we’ll meet with Google/YouTube as well as Facebook/Instagram (the platform I’m most comfortable with -- obvious, right?) REGIONAL offices for their guidance & inputs please ‘wag kayong magsawa sa PASASALAMAT ko?

“Thank you from a very grateful heart that you gave me another chance to stay connected with you & for my team to create a viable business model with trusted brands now partnering with us to give you real experiences, real engagement, and real entertainment. Thank you for continuing to choose to #LiveLifeWithKris.”
