Kris Aquino and James Yap Marriage is Over

Kris Aquino’s 5-year marriage to James Yap is over, Kris revealed on Sunday. So now what? Do people care?

From GMA News:

In between sobs, Kris Aquino — popular talk show host, actress, and youngest sister of incoming President Benigno Aquino III — confirmed that her marriage to basketball star James Yap has come to an end, after five years of an often-turbulent relationship.

“With finality I can say, ako sumuko na (I have given up),” Aquino said on ABS-CBN’s “The Buzz” on Sunday.

Aquino said it was not a “spur of the moment” decision, adding that both she and husband Yap, a popular basketball player, tried long to fix whatever problems they had.

Aquino, who has acquired a reputation for her candor in airing her personal pains and peeves under close media scrutiny, however refused to elaborate on the reasons behind the apparent failure of their marriage.

“(Whatever the reason) why this marriage, on my part I’m saying, is over, the only person I will owe an explanation to, and the only person who can demand from me (why we separated), is my son,” Aquino said.

Aljur Abrenica on SOP

Ay naku, another poor concept. I don’t know, is it just me? Do we really want to get entertained by the “fathers”?

That’s the problem with following all these calendar days to conceptualize your programming. I don’t know how many of us take Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Secretaries Day, Postal Workers Day, etc. seriously in our daily lives. Just because some organization is telling us that we should be nice to a certain group of people on a certain day, we should follow. This is just commercialism blurred into our culture — Father’s day was established so we have a reason to buy gifts — a lot of us fail to realize why we are celebrating these “days” in the first place. Just like Christmas — I am nice to people around me every single day of the year (naks) not just in December. At any rate, because SOP is forcing themselves to celebrate Father’s Day artificially, we now have a production number with middle-aged men who are living their showbiz fantasies via their sons. That’s well and good — but is it entertainment???
