Marc Leviste on Kris Aquino’s homecoming

Out of sight, out of mind” does not apply to Marc Leviste when it comes to Kris Aquino. Even if they have parted ways, the cool vice governor still finds ways to make his presence felt in her life even in his absence.

Here’s Marc’s sentiments about Kris’ much-awaited homecoming from the US:

I am glad that Kris is finally home, and I’m equally happy for her family, friends and fans that our “queen” is back at long last. However, it breaks my heart to see someone I deeply care about facing such a difficult battle. Her strength and resilience have always amazed me, and I know she will give everything to protect her health.

As Kris prepares for her second immunosuppressant infusion and spends time with her sisters and relatives, I pray for her healing, comfort and peace. Now, more than ever, she needs the unwavering love and support of her loved ones. My children and I are here for her, offering all the encouragement we can.

Karylle’s podcast

The title of Karylle Yuzon’s Spotify podcast “K’s Drama” (KD) is so her. It reminds me of the time I got hooked on the world of “oppas” because of her post about the K-drama series “Crash Landing on You.”

In KD, Karylle shares raw emotions and behind-the-scenes goings-on in the lives of her family and friends. One gets to appreciate K not just for her hosting skills, her music or her acting chops.

In this digital space, her quirks, humor, wealth of knowledge and honest confessions make K so authentic that she has become quite the aspiration of both millennial and Gen Z females. Give one or two episodes a listen and you’ll get what we mean.

Here’s K sharing her thoughts:

KD started as a “just try it out” project, but we got such great feedback that we gunned for a Season 2. We shot in Singapore because we were invited to shoot in the Spotify office.

Coincidentally, my mom (Zsa Zsa Padilla) got an appointment in Singapore for kidney surgery around that time of my shoot. Then, my dad passed away.

After the play “Little Shop of Horrors” and dad’s funeral, the timing was perfect to go on a trip to one of my favorite places. It was so timely that I scheduled my friends to guest in the podcast.

In the super experimental Episode 2, we did a little walk around Singapore from Orchard Road to beautiful Emerald Hill. It ended up being my most personal episode yet. I guess it’s one way to deal with my grief by just walking, clearing my head, reminiscing and somehow feeling like someone will walk with you during the hard times.
