Bimby Aquino, son of Kris Aquino, approved her mother’s new boyfriend who gave a bouquet as a way of thanking her for the birthday greeting.
The Queen of All Media previously posted a birthday greeting for this mystery man on Instagram that read, “Thank you for coming into my life… Happy Birthday!”
She noted that it was her son, Bimby, who carried the bouquet which implied that her son approved of this mystery man.
“Obviously he has Bimb’s ‘yes’ and I’ve always been vocal, when my sons are okay, then my world’s okay,” shared Kris.
She then added, “Because I want to keep it this way, whatever shall be happening will be only for us- my family, closest friends, and trusted team.”

Aquino also noted that having the approval of the people she loves is important for her.
“That’s what matters, the people who truly love me have all met him and you all feel may calming influence siya,” she said in a comment.
The mystery man was later revealed to be the former Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Mel Sarmiento.
Sarmiento defended Aquino from a basher who called the actress narcissistic and asked her to delete her social media accounts.
The former DILG secretary used Aquino’s Instagram account to reply to the basher.
“@mynameisaxell hiniram ko yung phone ni Kris – ewan ko kung nakatrabaho kita sa DILG sa laki ng department mahirap maalalala ang lahat. Wag naman masamain kung nag greet nga sa ‘kin, ba’t naman napunta na sa malas? Eh napasaya nga nya ko- kung tutuusin napaka swerte ko. Kung nag sama nga tayo sa department na minahal ko, konting respeto naman sa ‘min ni Kris. – Mel Senen Sarmiento,” the comment stated.
