MANILA – Kapamilya host Boy Abunda supports former co-host and good friend Kris Aquino’s decision to have a new talent manager and leave home network ABS-CBN. He, however, preferred not to divulge any more details on the rumors.

“Hindi ako nagsasalita dahil hindi pa nga nagsasalita si Kris, hindi pa nagsasalita si Tony (TAPE Inc. CEO and APT Entertainment executive Antonio Tuveria)… Hindi nagsasalita ‘yung ibang taong relevant to this particular issue. Bakit naman ako mangunguna?” Abunda said in a report by PEP.ph.

(I’m not yet addressing [the rumors] because Kris hasn’t talked about it yet, Tony hasn’t talked about it yet as well… Other people relevant to this particular issue aren’t addressing it yet. Why should I be the first to talk about it?)

The Tonight with Boy Abunda host asserted that all remained ‘okay’ between Aquino and him. He also remained mum on her supposed contract signing with Triple A, which was also owned by Tuviera.

“She’s okay. I haven’t spoken to her in a couple of days but we are in touch. She’s Kris. She’s okay… May mga bagay kase na klarong gusting gawin ni Kris… Parati kong sinasabe she knows what she wants. She’s not making an easy decision,” he continued.

“Si Kris, napaka-cerebral ng proseso, nag-iisip kung ano ang susunod na gagawin. She knows what she wants… She’s maybe very careful, very cautious, but she’ll be okay.”

(…There are things that Kris clearly wants to do… I always say that she knows what she wants. She’s not making an easy decision… Kris’s process is very cerebral; she thinks about what she’ll do next. She knows what she wants… She’s maybe very careful, very cautious, but she’ll be okay.)

In a separate interview with Inquirer.net, Abunda also clarified that he still represented the actress-host when it comes to her endorsements.

“Hindi naman kami naghiwalay… Wala kaming pagbabago sa aming relasyon ni Kris. Kami pa rin. I still do her contracts. Walang nababago,” he explained.

(We did not part ways… There’s no change in my relationship with Kris. We’re still together. I still do her contracts. Nothing changed.)
