We have to hand it to her: Kris Aquino sure knows how to surprise her audience.
The so-called Queen of All Media took to social media to reveal that she is set to make a return to TV hosting seven months after she announced her showbiz hiatus.
In an Instagram post on Sun, Nov 6, Kris said she will hosting a one-on-one interview with President Rodrigo Duterte to be aired on Fri, Nov 11.
What’s even more surprising: the interview will air not on ABS-CBN or GMA, but on TV5 and PTV5.
“7 months of not hosting on TV. I promised myself, babalik ako (I will be back) for a once in a lifetime, one on one interview,” the caption for the post reads.
If you need to be reminded: Duterte succeeded former President Benigno Aquino III, Kris’ older brother.
Kris, 45, has said several times in the past that she supports Duterte, even defending him from detractors.
“If my brother is respectful enough to want to give this administration a chance to succeed, why won’t I do the same? (Of course), there will be missteps…Pero ako, gusto ko na mag-succeed (Me, I want him to succeed).”
The revelation that Kris will interview Duterte came days after she hinted that she’s working on something.
“So much happening this November,” she wrote in an Instagram post on Wed, Nov 3.
Indeed, Kris, Indeed.
