Queen of All Media Kris Aquino has revealed that her sisters are gathering forces to make sure her TV comeback would finally push through.

This was revealed by Aquino in her latest Instagram post Jan. 23 after negotiations to bring her back to free TV for a daily talk show failed again.

Aquino said that she cautioned her sisters from investing these days due to the pandemic.

"If you’ve been following entertainment news, you’d know malaki ang risk to produce now in the midst of a pandemic & a slowdown in the economy. But regardless of the financial risk, my sisters believed enough in me to support and trust my vision," she said.

Amid disappointments, Aquino said the she draws strength from her family as source of inspiration.

In the same post, Aquino also showed her son Bimby how to open a Shopee account, her newest endorsement.

"My siblings & i know the value of family because of our mom. She taught us many things, pero sa ‘kin siguro nangibabaw talaga ang generosity," she added.

Aquino's full post:

"When we were shooting this yesterday, i already knew the bad news - 1 month na negotiations namin to bring me back to free Tv on a daily talk show hindi naging okay ang ending kasi nag backout na yung kabilang side.

"BUT this was work for @shopee_ph so tinuloy ko and unless umamin ako sa post na ‘to, you wouldn’t have known may bigat pala sa puso ko...

"you know why? because i know what really matters, and that is FAMILY.

"2 of my sisters had shown me how much they loved me by volunteering to invest in what would have been my comeback. if you’ve been following entertainment news, you’d know malaki ang risk to produce now in the midst of a pandemic & a slowdown in the economy. BUT regardless of the financial risk, my sisters believed enough in me to support & trust my vision. Tinalikuran man ako ng isang kumpanya, hindi nayanig ang mundo ko dahil sigurado ang buong pagkatao ko na may pamilya akong nagmamahal at may tiwala sa ‘kin.

"Sa video namin, you’ll see that i opened Bimb a ShopeePay account. My siblings & i know the value of FAMILY because of our Mom. She taught us many things, pero sa ‘kin siguro nangibabaw talaga ang GENEROSITY.

"To honor my mom, i’ll sponsor opening 8 #ShopeePay accounts w/ P5K each for my followers on IG and 8 on FB. Kwentuhan nyo lang ako what #FAMILY means to you.?

"i’ll announce the winners LIVE on Monday night, January 25."
