Actor Philip Salvador is facing accusations of using his son with Kris Aquino, Joshua “Josh” Aquino, to bolster his campaign for the 2025 senatorial elections.
In the latest episode of the ‘Ogie Diaz Showbiz Update’ on YouTube, the hosts discussed Salvador’s expressed longing for his son, whom he reportedly hasn’t seen in over a decade.
Ogie Diaz shared, “Ito ‘yung pagtatapat lamang ni Philip Salvador sa ilan niyang kaibigan na nami-miss daw niya.”
The vlog also highlighted that Kris Aquino has solely raised her children, including Josh, which may have contributed to the long separation between father and son.
“Talagang sinolo na ni Kris Aquino ang pagpapalaki sa kanyang mga anak,” Diaz added.
On social media platform X, netizens quickly voiced their skepticism, suggesting that Salvador’s renewed interest in his son is politically motivated. Others echoed this sentiment, pointing out the timing of Salvador’s statements.

Salvador and Aquino have not publicly commented on these allegations, leaving the public to speculate on the true motivations behind Salvador’s recent actions.
