Tetay is engaged to former DILG boss
By Cynthia Montojo
“To my best friend and the man I said yes to spending the rest of my life with, thank you for, as Bimb said, loving me for me, with no agenda, and for being just an overall good and patient man,” actress Kris Aquino is now engaged to former Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Sec. Mel Sarmiento!
On Instagram, the Queen of All Media shared nearly one-minute video showing the two of them looking all cute while teasing each other.
She also penned lengthy caption dedicated to her fiancé.
“It’s unreal how much more calm and peaceful I feel now that you’re here, as much as I am proud to be an Aquino, looking forward na akong maging Sarmiento,”Kris also took the time to remember her brother, late former Pres. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III whom she believes is their ‘matchmaker elsewhere smiling now.”
“It’s been exactly four months since we so unexpectedly lost our brother…sure ako, ayaw niya talagang iwanan si bunso na walang magbabantay at mag-aalaga na siguradong pinagkakatiwalaan niya,” she said.
“I can almost hear his voice telling me, ‘Kristina, tama na, respect the fact na gusto ni Mel ng tahimik na buhay.’ And finally, bunso has learned to obey,” Tetay added.
According to Kris, she and Mel would never have met if it weren’t for Noynoy. As such, she can’t help but thank him for still making sure that she and her kids, Josh and Bimb, are okay.
“You must have known how broken I’d be to lose you, so you made sure there was someone who not only helped wipe away my tears, he’s made it possible for me to smile and laugh again,” she said.
“Dumating nung hindi ko hinahanap o inaasahan kaya nga tama silang lahat na nagsabi in God’s perfect time,” Tetay claimed.
Kris revealed the identity of her mystery man in August, when he left a comment on one of her posts.
Mel served as the DILG secretary from 2015 to 2016.
