After weeks of silence on social media, Kris Aquino provided an update on her health.

She admitted to testing positive for COVID-19 in an Instagram post this morning.

Kris shared, “Kuya Josh tested positive for [COVID-19] on June 20. Nurse took his temperature then they got antigen kits, tested him first because he was so unlike himself. He was just lying down, on the sofa, no energy to play or watch GouTubr on his phone,”

She was asleep in her room at the time, so her nurse woke her up to inform her that the child was positive.

Kris initially didn’t comprehend what the nurse was saying until her youngest son, Bimb, arrived and urged her to put on a face mask.

Tetay and Bimb promptly departed the house where they were residing, leaving Kuya Josh in the care of the nurses for the time being.

“My instinct was to go and hug kuya but everyone told me I needed to leave immediately and move to a hotel because I was severely immuno compromised and being covid positive would mean ICU for me,” Kris added.

She is particularly concerned about Bimb’s health since, in addition to being immunocompromised, she suffers from asthma.

“It was heartbreaking to leave kuya, I felt I was abandoning him in time of need,” kris said.

Kris and Bimb both had a PCR test to validate their health. The initial test result was negative, but she began to feel worse a few days later.

“By the 23rd mid morning I asked Nurse Eloi to please check my temperature because something was off. True enough, I had fever.

“I said to please get the antigen test kit. Nurse Eloi tried to remain calm but in less than 5 mins both red lines hd appeared. Kuya was already at the same hotel so I told them to please take Bimb,” Kris explained.

She fell exhausted, so when she awoke, she instantly greeted the youngest, and Anne Binay, who was with Nimb, said she was only sleeping.

She followed her instincts and performed an antigen test on Bimb.

“True enough, less than 12 hours after me Bimb was also Covid positive,” she said.

Kris Aquino made a joke with his late brother, former President Noynoy Aquino, “Since this was already your death anniversary, somehow I felt reassured knowing that the three of us would get through this new ordeal especially because you would never allow us to have a death date so close to yours.”

The couple is presently undergoing COVID-19 treatment.

Kris hopes that his mourning brother, former President Noynoy Aquino, will not allow anything unpleasant to happen to the couple in a letter to his grieved brother.

Kris’ message to his fans,

“This isn’t a permanent goodbye, ibalato nyo na lang hanggang malagpasan namin itong matinding pagsubok. Thank you for all your prayers. I am forever #grateful.

“Promise, pag may good news ako, after thanking God & telling my sisters & my trusted friends- you’ll see a post from me. In God’s perfect timing.”
