Kris Aquino is known to be a hands-on, doting mom to her two boys Joshua and Bimby, and she is known, too, to extend that motherly love to others in her circle.
These include Frankie Pangilinan, the daughter of Sharon Cuneta and Sen. Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan.
Kris Aquino commented on one of Frankie’s pictures on Instagram last Nov. 26, which showed the teen seated on a sofa in a black shirt and shorts.
“Please know how much respect I have for your dad [Kiko] and how much affection I have for your mom. You are a wonderful credit to their parenting and nurturing.”
Pangilinan replied, “Thank you so much Tita Kris! I’ve always been so inspired by your strength above all. Much love to you, Bimby and Kuya Josh as well!”

Yesterday, Dec. 5, Cuneta shared a screenshot of Aquino’s touching message. In the caption, she wrote, “You are so right, Beej. I am so blessed to have a Kakie. We love each other so much and I am proud that she treasures me. Thanks so much! We [yellow heart emoji] you!”

Aquino promised that she and her team would watch Cuneta’s family drama “Three Words to Forever” in theaters during the weekend. She shared that she had high blood pressure for two nights too.
Cuneta expressed concern at her friend’s news and advised her to rest. “Don’t push yourself. If you have to postpone your movie date with your staff and [Josh and Bimby], can you please just?! That’s no joke ha, always na lang (just) high your BP!”
“Please rest and don’t be thinking too much. This too, shall pass. All of it,” she said.

In a recent Instagram post featuring her daughter’s picture, Cuneta waxed sentimental at her daughter turning 18 on Dec. 16. “You make me feel like I haven’t failed at all,” she said. “Thank you for loving me, respecting me, for being a good and grateful daughter.”
Last Nov. 27, Aquino expressed her admiration for Sen. Kiko. She commented on a family picture he shared on Instagram: “You do know how much I look up to you because of your integrity and because you have raised exceptional children.” /ra
