Bimby Aquino approved of his mother’s engagement to former Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Mel Sarmiento.
In an Instagram post by Kris, she shared a video where she asked why her youngest son immediately gave his approval to her engagement with Mel.
Bimby explained that he can simply feel the sincerity of Mel toward his mother.
“It’s because he loves you. No agenda at all. And you can really tell that he wants to take care of you, me, and Kuya. And basically, I can tell whenever he looks at you, his eyes twinkle. Basta you can feel he genuinely loves you, Mom,” said Bimby.
