Kris Aquino is undeniably one of the most famous, outspoken, and controversial personalities in the world of Philippine showbiz and politics. Known as the “Queen of All Media,” many admire her intelligence, courage, and heart — but along with this are some of the conflicts and disputes that have also been part of her colorful life.

Here are some of Kris’ most talked-about conflicts and disputes over the decades of her career:

1. Boy AbundaThey were a long-time couple and friends, but there was a cold shoulder when Boy moved to the Kapamilya Network while Kris gradually moved away from showbiz. Although there was no major conflict, their ‘silent falling out’ became a topic of conversation that still puzzles many.

The father of her son Bimby, James Yap, was part of the most turbulent period in Kris’ personal life. They had a public fight when they separated, especially over the issue of custody and communication with Bimby. Despite this, Kris also tried to maintain respect for her daughter’s father.

One of the well-known showbiz columnists who often speaks about Kris — and not always positively. Kris has responded to Cristy’s taunts several times, which led to more heated exchanges in the media. However, it seems that this also led to a quiet distancing from each other.

They used to be friends, but tension arose when Ai-Ai was allegedly not invited to some important events in Kris’s life. Their relationship became cold and although there was no direct confirmation, many felt the ‘gap’ between them.

5. Mocha Uson and Some Political PersonalitiesKris is also not immune to political controversies — especially when her father and mother’s legacy was attacked. She responded bluntly on social media, and issued strong statements to those who criticized the Aquino family

6. Kim Chiu (Usap-usapan Noon)

Although there was no clear conflict, the apparent ‘misunderstanding’ between Kris and Kim on a program became a rumor. Kris later denied it via social media, but their relationship remained quiet for a while.

Ending and Forgiveness?
Despite the conflicts and disagreements, Kris is also known as someone who knows how to forgive and is willing to make amends. She has made several statements about the importance of “closure” and “peace,” especially in the midst of her health struggles.

“I may be noisy, but I value silence when it comes to pain and forgiveness,” a line Kris left that continues to resonate.

A Woman Who Isn’t Afraid to Tell the Truth
Every conflict in Kris’s life is part of a bigger story — the story of a woman who isn’t afraid to stand up for her principles, even if it causes misunderstandings. And in the end, as many say: Kris may be complicated, but she has always been real. 💛
