Some writers said Herbert purposely didn’t come as he is scared he’d be grilled about the currently much reported affair he’s now said to be having with Kris Aquino. It’s said he’s the secret lover that Kris has been alluding to for the past weeks without revealing his true identity, causing many friends of Tates Gana (Herbert’s long time companion with whom he has two kids) to feel sad if this were true.
Kris watchers, though, believe that this is just a passing fancy. Because judging from the track record of the guys linked to her or had a relationship with her before, they’re all tall and handsome, like Phillip Salvador (father of her son Joshua), James Yap (father of Bimby), Joey Marquez, Robin Padilla, Richard Gomez, cagers Alvin Patrimonio and Rommel Aducul. They surmise that the Herbert Bautista episode is just one of her many concocted stories to keep her being talked about and perpertually in the limelight, which she thrives on.
