Kris Aquino clarifies she doesn’t get financial support from Phillip Salvador, James Yap in raising her sons




“To clarify, we don't communicate & he has no active role in Kuya Josh's life."
 
This is what Kris Aquino frankly stated amidst queries why she never mentions ex-flame Phillip Salvador, the father of her eldest son Josh, in her social media posts.
 
This stemmed from Kris’s Instagram post last July 24, where she shared a photo of Josh who excitedly got his hands on his smartphone after being grounded for two days from using it.

Phillip Salvador ‘out of the picture?’
 
In the comments section, several fans of the Queen of All Media asked if Phillip is “out of the picture” since she never mentions him in terms of raising their son Josh.
 
Kris, for her part, said that she was fortunate enough to be able to afford her eldest son’s financial needs without asking any form of support from his father.
 
The Queen of All Media further explained: “Together w/ my siblings, and w/ much gratitude to my Mom, we all took on the responsibility of raising Kuya, and I have always been open about his having special needs...
 
“I have been solely financially responsible for Kuya's upbringing for most of his life, let me EMPHASIZE I'm not calling anybody out—God truly blessed me w/ the financial capacity to care for my panganay.”
 
With that, Kris reiterated that there’s no point mentioning Phillip, alluding to the fact that he has long since chosen not to be involved in their son’s life.  
 
“This is my account, and this chronicles my life, and my family.
 
“Why will I mention someone who isn't part of our lives?
 
“Parenting requires effort. And it's a choice on how involved you'll choose to be.”
 
On a lighter note, Kris said that she has been blessed with a loving family who actively helps her in showing love and support towards her children.
 
“That being said, I have been extremely blessed to have siblings, Josh's pretty ninang @boss1020, when they were alive Lola Cory & Lola P, his Lolo Esting & all my dear friends who surround him w/ LOVE, UNDERSTANDING & UNWAVERING PRESENCE & SUPPORT...
 
“I hope that puts this issue to rest.
 
“We are peaceful & that's what is important. —PEP
