“Minsan, ang first date hindi natutuloy. President Duterte, pinaghandaan kita...26 na lang ang bewang ko ngayon. Sisiguraduhin ko pong magiging 25 para sa next time na pagkikita natin," she said.
Kris said upon learning that the president was going to miss the interview, she sought advice from her brother former President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III.
“Sinabi ko ‘Noy, I’m alone’ sabi ko sa kanya, ‘What do I do?’ sabi niya ‘You made a commitment, nandiyan ka for Go Negosyo, nandiyan ka because you believe in the Philippine economy at nandiyan ka because you want everybody to be included in the growth of our economy,’” Kris narrated, adding that colleagues have missed shoots in the past.
She still pursued the interview with entrepreneurs despite the president's absence. It was her hosting comeback after a seven-month hiatus from Philippine television.
