Kris Aquino Responds To Herbert Bautista’s #TOTGA: ‘There’s No Need To Use Our Past To Gain Attention’

 Kris Aquino has responded to senatorial aspirant Herbert Bautista’s statement over a statement which seeming alluding his failed relationship with the actress.



 

 

Aquino’s fiancé Mel Sarmiento have called it “improper and ungentlemanlike”. In a now deleted post of Bautista, who is running for senator with presidential candidate Ping Lacson said: “Mr. President Ping @iampinglacson, na-inspire din tuloy akong mag-propose. Kaso, sayang… may napili na po siya (broken heart emojis).” Bautista also used the hashtags #KungMaibabalikKoLang and #TOTGA (The One That Got Away).

 

In a statement issued by Mel Samiento on Saturday, said: “Although Mayor Herbert Bautista has already taken down his post which obviously referred to Kris, I just wish that this would serve as a reminder that talking about past flames in public is improper and ungentlemanlike.”

“As a former public servant now seeking a seat in the Senate, he should know better than dragging other people to get public attention.”

 

Meanwhile, in a separate post, Aquino said that Bautista’s track record is more than enough to get him elected.

“Because sa survey na nakita ko, within striking distance ka na sa Magic 12, so there’s no need to use our past to gain attention,” she said.

 

 

Aquino added that Bautista should “talk about your present, not your past” as he is now in a relationship with a “beautiful girlfriend.”

“After 7 years of trying but not succeeding, siguro naman kilala mo na ang ugali ko. Kaya kong dumedma kung ako ang ginagamit o naaapakan BUT foul when it’s someone i love & value (in this instance my very soon to be husband na hindi ka naman ginulo o inagrabyado) then papalag ako. i totally agree with what he said especially because sa survey na nakita ko, within striking distance ka na sa Magic 12- so there’s no need to use our past to gain attention,” Kris continued.

 

Later, Bautista apologized to the couple: “It was certainly inappropriate and a mistake. My Profuse apologies to Kris.”
