Screen grab from Kris Aquino’s Instagram account
TV host-actress Kris Aquino and son James “Bimby” Aquino-Yap were rushed to St. Luke’s Medical Center in Taguig City after a minor car accident on Tuesday.
Aquino said their Cadillac Escalade was bumped from behind by their backup car Toyota Innova along Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (Edsa) after an armored vehicle swerved in front of them, causing the Escalade and the Isuzu in front of them to stop abruptly.
She said they were all wearing a seatbelt but the impact made them dizzy so they had to rush to the hospital.
According to her, she and her son both experienced an elevated blood pressure.
“When we arrived my BP was 170/100 & Bimb’s was 130/90,” Aquino posted on her Instagram account.
The actress said she and her son were sent home after undergoing medical exams.
Aquino added she would be absent on her ABS-CBN talk show “Aquino and Abunda Tonight.” NC/RC
