Kris Aquino refuses to start a conflict with Gretchen Barretto
Kris Aquino has recently responded to recent news about Gretchen Barretto’s support for her ex-business partner Nicko Falcis, saying basically that she will not engage in another conflict.
As reported on ABS-CBN News, the issue sparked recently, when fans took offense that Barretto decided to side with Falcis, after sharing a screencap of an article about Falcis and his allegations against Aquino.
She posted, “I feel for Mr. Nicko Falcis after reading this article. I salute him for his courage to speak the truth, fight for his family name and reputation in spite of the threat to his life. No to bullies! Stop power tripping!”
Aquino’s fans, who were triggered by Barretto’s open support, notified the former of the Instagram post soon after
However, Aquino instead stressed that she will not respond to Barreto’s post.
“In this issue, I shall choose to look back on the year 1986. Gretchen may dislike me now, but she campaigned for my mum against the Marcoses,” she wrote.
To the fans, she stated, “I have stated this time and again – I can look beyond insults against me because it’s part of the territory. But if my mother was treated with respect and my sons weren’t hurt – I am chill. So if I can chill, maybe all of you should be too?”
Nicko Falcis recently filed a counter-affidavit against Aquino where he denied all of the actress’ allegations against him, calling it baseless and malicious.
He also denied stealing from Aquino using a credit card under her company, KCAP, saying that the actress has approved of all the expenses, which were all related to the company.
