LOS ANGELES, California — The “Queen of All Media” is gearing up for what she describes as her most challenging medical chapter yet. In a heartfelt update that has moved her millions of followers, Kris Aquino revealed she is about to embark on a grueling new series of treatments to address her deteriorating health.
Taking to social media, the former host and actress shared that she is currently undergoing intensive preparations for a new biological medicine.

“I will be starting a new treatment that is quite experimental and, to be honest, very difficult on the body,” Aquino shared. She admitted to feeling a mix of anxiety and resolve, noting that the journey ahead will require her to be in complete isolation for a period to protect her compromised immune system.
Despite the gravity of the situation, the actress maintained her trademark transparency, thanking her medical team in the United States and her sons, Josh and Bimby, who have remained her primary source of strength. “I’m doing this for my children. I want to see them grow up and be there for their milestones,” she added.
Fans and fellow celebrities immediately flooded her comments with prayers and messages of support. Aquino’s health has been a matter of national concern in the Philippines, with many following her journey as a symbol of resilience. While her physical appearance has changed due to the nature of her illnesses, her spirit remains vocal, as she continues to provide updates whenever her strength allows.
As she moves into this next phase of her recovery, the focus remains on stabilization. Her team has requested privacy and continued prayers as she navigates these high-risk procedures in the coming months.
