Queen of All Media Kris Aquino stirred fans' curiosity after she spoke about going back to her "first and last love" on Instagram.
On October 20, the TV personality shared a snippet of Erik Santos's rendition of the song “I Miss You Like Crazy.”
“There are things in life I learned to leave behind because the past, whether beautiful or painful, is really just a memory…” she said.
“Pero naiiba pala ang pananaw mo sa buhay 'pag pinaglaban ka na at pinaramdam sa'yo kung gaano ka kahalaga -- maraming beses ka mang nabigo ng iba, kakayanin mong maniwala that this time FOREVER CAN REALLY BEGIN.
“Our new journey begins this Wednesday, October 21, dahil babalikan ko na ang aking una at huling minamahal.”
While the clue directly points at her latest advert for an online shopping app, fans of Kris Aquino couldn't help but link it to her string of romantic relationships.
In particular, that of actor-turned-politician Herbert Bautista.
In the comments, a netizen named “kristekbabies” was eager to see their idol back on television.
“'Yung tatay n'yo hindi ako ipinaglaban kaya bumili ako sa…” Kris replied, followed by orange heart emojis.
The term “Kristek” is the portmanteau of Kris and Herbert's nickname “Bistek,” meaning the netizen is a fan of the ex-couple.
Kris's comment reached her ex-lover, which prompted the former Quezon City Mayor to write, “@krisaquino, ano'ng hindi?”
This led the TV host to reiterate that their relationship is a closed chapter and should remain that way for good.
“@herbert.bautista.397, please don't rewrite history,” she said.
“You didn't when it mattered. This isn't the venue to debate the past. I thought we already did that far too many times?
“Tanong lang -- bakit 'pag nararamdaman mong dinededma ka na, bakit kailangan magparamdam ka? 'Di ba napakaselfish na attitude nun?”
She concluded, “Matagal kitang hinintay pero pinagod mo ang buong pagkatao ko kaya for me you are already a closed chapter.”
Kris Aquino revealed in the past that Herbert asked for her number in 2014.
Two months later, she shared an Instagram post that the former Mayor invited her to a family dinner and later confirmed that they are dating in a television talk show.
Herbert proposed to her in April 2014 to which Kris later described as the “least romantic proposal anyone has ever received.” A few days after their engagement, they broke up.
Kris and Herbert later said that they have decided to remain friends.
