Kris Aquino on Mark Leviste: “We're not enemies, we just weren't meant for each other.”

Kris Aquino reveals the real reason of her breakup with Batangas Vice Governor Mark Leviste.

“I gave you a cleansed version of why I ended my relationship with Marc,” Kris told her followers on her Instagram post today, July 17.

The Queen of All Media previously mentioned that she asked Mark for a “pause” in their relationship. She cited the long-distance setup as one of the reasons because, according to her “long-distance relationship will be next to impossible for us to maintain."

In her latest post, Kris mentioned Mark's job as a public servant as another factor in breaking up with him.

She explained in an art card included on the post, “I saw he has many dreams left to fulfill and many obligations to the people who gave him their vote. Sadly, I'm in the battle of my life precisely because I'm doing all I can to save my life because my two sons still need me.

“I'm realistic enough that Marc has a life beyond trying to help take care of me. I apologize for seeming selfish but why will I add stress in my life when I see his posts enjoying himself when I am suffering 8000 miles away?

“If we had tried to stay together as a couple the ending would still be the same, tao rin ako na mapipikon at magtatampo dahil mararamdaman kong, hindi ba nya naisip ang hirap na pinagdadaanan ko?”

On the next art card, Kris shared that during her short-lived romance with Mark, she realized that the latter was not ready to be in a serious relationship with her.

She wrote, “Kaya minabuti ko nang sa akin nang manggaling kasi nakita at naramdaman kong hindi siya handa sa responsibilidad ng seryosong relasyon kasama ang isang babae na tinatanggap ang realidad na yung buhay nya ngayon ay pinahiram na oras lamang ng Diyos.

“Pareho kaming may karapatan na mabuhay sa paraan na pinaka payapa ang mga puso namin.”

At the end of her message, Kris maintained that she and Mark had an amicable separation.

“I'm keeping my word that he will never read nor hear me saying negative about him because what for? We're not enemies, we just weren't meant for each other,” she ended.
