Manila, Philippines — The internet was recently rocked by a wave of posts claiming that Kris Aquino, the beloved “Queen of All Media,” has passed away. Screenshots, TikTok videos, and vague tributes flooded social media platforms, sparking confusion, fear, and deep sadness among fans.

But what is the truth? Here’s a breakdown of the situation and what’s really happening.


What Started the Rumor?

The false news appears to have originated from a viral social media post that used a dramatic thumbnail and caption reading, “QUEEN KRIS PUMANAW NA RAW?” accompanied by an old photo of Kris in a hospital bed.

It quickly gained traction, with thousands of shares and comments — many expressing shock and grief, while others demanded verification.


What Do We Know From Official Sources?

As of today, no credible news outlets (such as ABS-CBN, GMA, or Inquirer) have confirmed or reported Kris Aquino’s death. In fact:

A family representative has since denied the rumor.

Kris’s legal counsel urged the public to stop spreading misinformation, as it causes unnecessary panic.

According to sources close to her family, Kris is still undergoing treatment in the U.S. for her autoimmune diseases and continues to fight bravely.

Kris Aquino’s Health: A Tough Journey

The confusion may have stemmed from Kris’s well-documented battle with multiple autoimmune diseases, including EGPA (Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis) and Chronic Urticaria.

She’s been in and out of hospitals, and has been living quietly in the United States while receiving specialized care.

In her last verified update months ago, Kris admitted that the treatments were taking a toll, but she remained hopeful and grateful for the support of her sons, Bimby and Josh.

“I still have a long way to go, but I’m thankful I’m still here fighting,” she said in one of her video updates.


Fans Call for Respect and Sensitivity

Following the viral fake news, fans and celebrities alike have rallied behind Kris. Many are calling for responsible reporting and reminding everyone of the emotional impact such rumors can have — not just on fans, but on Kris’s family as well.

“Don’t bury someone who’s still alive and fighting. Show respect.”

“Let’s pray for Kris’ healing instead of spreading falsehoods.”


Final Words: What We Can Do

While it’s true that Kris Aquino is in a serious health battle, she is still alive and surrounded by love and care. In times like this, the best thing fans can offer is prayers, hope, and respect.

Let us remember Kris not as a victim of rumors — but as the unbreakable queen who has stood tall through heartbreaks, betrayals, political storms, and now illness. Her legacy is far from over.

If and when her family chooses to give an update, they deserve to do so on their terms — not through unverified social media posts chasing views.
