Manila, March 4, 1998 - Actress and TV host Kris Aquino vehemently denies rumors that Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim, presidential candidate of the Liberal Party, is courting her mom, former President Cory Aquino.
The rumor started when President Aquino openly endorsed Lim's presidential candidacy and went all out to campaign for the retired police general who defended her government against several military coup attempts.
Kris says she firmly believes in her mother's conviction never to remarry and replace her late father, Senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Jr.
She added that she's not yet ready to have a stepfather.
