President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. addressed the perceived feud between the Marcos and Aquino families, emphasizing that their differences are purely political. “We’ve always been okay, we just don’t agree politically,” Marcos said.
On Tuesday, First Lady Louise “Liza” Araneta-Marcos shared photos of Kris Aquino’s sons, Josh and Bimby, during their visit to her office. President Marcos explained that the visit was related to Kris Aquino, who is currently in the United States for treatment, seeking travel assistance.
Marcos appreciated the gesture from the Aquino family. “The reason they visited the First Lady is simple. Kris Aquino needed some assistance for something,” he said. “The First Lady helped, and they thanked her… it was a fine gesture on the part of the Aquino family.”
He also highlighted a familial connection between the First Lady and Kris Aquino’s sons. “Liza is their aunt. Her aunt married Don Pepe, the eldest brother of Cory, so they are related,” Marcos explained.
