“We love you and we are so blessed to have had the privilege to have had you as our brother. We’ll miss you forever,” the actress stated as she showed the video on her Facebook page yesterday, June 28.

“Marami po talaga akong gustong ibahagi sa inyo tungkol sa journey namin bilang magkapatid dahil alam ko how profoundly the experience has changed me,” she told her fans. (I have so many things to tell you about our journey as siblings because I know how profoundly the experience has changed me.)

Kris also noted that her social media account had become a venue of a “feud” between her and Noynoy, but she was eventually able to reconcile with him.

“I am praying that Noy will give me, ‘bunso’ as he refers to me to all those closest to him, a clear sign when he is ready for me to tell all of you our story — until then this bunso has learned her lessons and will stay silent,” she added.

Noynoy was the only son of late former President Cory Aquino and late former senator Ninoy Aquino, both regarded as icons of democracy. He served as the 15th President of the Philippines from 2010 to 2016.

He died in his sleep last Thursday, June 24, due to renal disease secondary to diabetes. His funeral mass was held at Ateneo de Manila University and he was buried at Manila Memorial Park, next to his parents. JB
