Sen. Kiko Pangilinan’s eldest daughter, Frankie, on Wednesday, May 11, received insults from TV personality Keanna Reeves, a supporter of presumptive president Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.
“Sabi ng iba we have to accept defeat daw, na hindi daw tayo marunong matalo. I think that the truth is, it’s not just about this election anymore,” said Frankie during an interview. “I am not going to have my president be named Ferdinand Marcos again, ever.”
The VP aspirant’s daughter recently joined a rally in front of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) office at the Palacio del Gobernador.
Frankie was “disgusted” by the result of the elections, which she expressed on Twitter on Tuesday.
“I may never understand how things came to be, but I will never forget the very distinct brand of love this election bred in each and every single one of our hearts.”

“My emotional range has been and continues to be tested to extreme lengths but if one this is certain, it is that everything has changed. I feel it bone-deep, I’m sure you do too. And regardless of results—the work does not end here.”

In another tweet, she refused to accept that another Marcos would be sitting in Malacañang.
“bongbong” is not the name they will print on malacañan’s stationery and if that doesn’t unsettle you, it should

Meanwhile, in retaliation, Reeves posted on Facebook how Frankie’s father was similar to a “monkey.” Her reaction was that the VP aspirant’s daughter was not yet born during Marcos Sr’s era.
The TV personality also included Megastar Sharon Cuneta, Frankie’s mother. Cuneta, in 1984 married actor Gabby Concepcion, with the late Ferdinand Marcos Sr as their godfather.
“Inday, ikwento mo kay ‘daddy matching’ mo yong experience mo kay Ferdinand Marcos Sr. ha…”
She added, “The Universe is so big, you can choose your President!!!”
Frankie explained that her objection came from the possible anomalies that transpired during election day.
we are not protesting election results, regardless of outcome. we are protesting vote-buying, vote-tampering, years of calculated, disinformation, propaganda dispersion, machine politics, and all systemic injustice that led to 30 million votes for the son of an ousted dictator.
