MANILA—All the speculations that she will be transferring to another network has ended when host-actress Kris Aquino announced on Monday that she has renewed her contract with ABS-CBN.
The in-demand TV host posted on her Instagram account:
“My manager Deo Endrinal continued talks w/ our ABS bosses during the Christmas break & it is w/ much joy that I share w/ you that we have RENEWED my ABS-CBN contract. I am grateful to my ABS-CBN bosses, Sir Gabby, Ma’am Charo, and Tita Cory for the trust, value & importance they have given me.”
“May I set the record straight? 1) I never met w/ any GMA officials but I am grateful to them for the generous coverage they gave My Little Bossings, primarily because of their longstanding partnership w/ Vic Sotto & the Eat Bulaga family. 2) I had met w/ MVP (Manny Pangilinan) in October & again Dec 23 of 2013,” Aquino explained.
“I have been w/ ABSCBN for 18 years & like any other family we’ve had our ups & downs and sometimes unavoidable “tampuhan”- but we remain FAMILY…”
“What I have become as a host, entertainer & producer came about because in 1996 FMG who was then president of ABS-CBN told me, ‘Come back home,'” she said, referring to Freddie Garcia, who later became her co-judge in the reality talent search “Pilipinas Got Talent.”
“I would just like to give a shoutout to @cvvidanes for being an inspiring boss who has not only my respect, but my love,” she said.
“I couldn’t imagine a show of mine w/o you because we’ve learned to love each other unconditionally,” she said of her “KrisTV family.”
“And the most important THANK YOU is for all the KAPAMILYA viewers, thank you for watching me, enjoying me & making me part of your daily viewing. Because of your support I get to continue a job I love & I am also able to provide well for Kuya & Bimb… From my heart, MARAMING SALAMAT KAPAMILYA!!!” she ended.
