Willie Revillame
As he has to make up his mind soon on whether to throw his hat into the political arena, Willie Revillame tells friends he is mentally exhausted.
The game show host knows that should he run, he will have to give up “Wowowin,” which he hosts and produces on GMA.
“To be fair to Willie, he is the primary reason viewers watch the show,” said an observer.

“He is the right host for such a show.
“But, of course, the biggest come on are the cash prizes. They give away cash that are more than what the government’s ayuda.
“In case he runs and gives up ‘Wowowin,’ what will happen to his co-hosts and those who work behind the cameras? Willie should not forget that these people are the same ones who were already with him when he was not yet the Willie Revillame.”

There are those who want to find out if Kris herself has plans of running for public office.
In a recent interview, she said that it is highly unlikely.
She will have her presence felt, for sure.
Aside from campaigning for her new love, she has also promised to campaign for Willie, should the host decide to run.
Kris and Willie have become closer because the latter is the favorite of Kris’ firstborn, Joshua. Willie visited Joshua in their home before the pandemic. When the lockdown was enforced, Kris and her sons stayed at Willie’s resthouse. Then, the two were even featured together as endorsers of Shopee.
Kris, however, does not want to close her doors completely. No one knows where destiny will bring you. Kris said she is planning to take up a course in political science.
Kris is a high school graduate of Colegio San Agustin, where she were classmates with journalists Karen Davila and Pinky Webb.
She holds a degree in Bachelor of Arts major in English Literature from the Ateneo de Manila University.
