After overcoming a recent hurdle in their marriage, Sharon Cuneta said she loves Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan, her husband of 28 long years, now more than ever.
Cuneta made her declaration of love for the former senator by sharing a reminder from American author Lewis Howes, through her Instagram Stories on Monday, July 15.
“When you choose a life partner, you’re choosing your eating companion for about 20,000 meals, your travelmate for 100 vacations, your retirement friend, your career cheerleader, and someone whose day you’ll hear about 18,000 times. Choose wisely,” Howes’ post read.
Cuneta then captioned it, “God helped me to choose really well! I love my Kiko now more than ever before.”

In December 2023, speculations of Cuneta and Pangilinan’s marriage being on the rocks surfaced after the actress-singer made cryptic posts on social media, including a family photo of them that was cropped to remove Kiko’s face and quotes about loyalty and “sidechicks.”
Weeks later, Cuneta admitted that she had parted ways with Pangilinan briefly over a misunderstanding but that they had since gotten back together.
Cuneta then underscored on their 28th anniversary last April that while “it hasn’t always been easy being married to each other,” their marriage is worth fighting for.
