TV host Boy Abunda talks about his longtime friend, actress Kris Aquino, February 26, 2026.
TV host Boy Abunda, a longtime friend of Kris Aquino, said Thursday the actress appears to be looking healthier and that he is hopeful about her continued recovery.
Abunda spent time with Aquino, who suffers from autoimmune diseases, during her birthday celebration on Valentine’s Day.
"A lot stronger. Hindi napag-usapan weight niya. But I saw her before at 82 pounds. There was a time she messaged her weight has gone up to 114," Abunda said in an interview held after his "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda" shoot in Quezon City.
“I hope she really gets better. Anything important in her life, she makes sure I am in the loop. Nag-uusap kami. Lalo na kay Bimb. Praying that she gets better.”

The host noted that Aquino's son Bimby continues to be hands-on in caring for his mother.
“Bumigay ako noong nakita ko si Kris sa America when they were there. Bumigay ako when Bimby was in total control. Kinakarga ang nanay. Nililipat. ‘Is it ready for mom?’ — he was in control. I am proud of the boy and how Kris raised the boy,” he explained.
The so-called "King of Talk" also shared how Aquino’s older son Josh supports her.
“Si Josh naman, I was told he began the day leading the prayer and ending it with another prayer,” he said.
Abunda said he is open to again working with Aquino but wants her to first prioritize her health.
“Wala kami formal conversation about possible podcast. I am open if my contract allows. I look forward to doing materials with her,” he said.
