Deo Endrinal at Kris Aquino
NGAYONG tanghali lang nag-post ang nag-iisang Queen of Social Media na si Kris Aquino tungkol sa pagkamatay ng kanyang long-time manager at ABS-CBN executive na si Mr. Roldeo T. Endrinal.
Ikinuwento ni Kris kung gaano katutok sa kanya si Sir Deo Endrinal pagdating sa kanyang karera kasabay ng payong ihiwalay ang personal life sa trabaho.
Matatandaang si DTE (tawag kay sir Deo) ang nasa tabi niya nang magkaroon ng malaking isyu sangkot ang dating karelasyon na si Tsong Joey Marquez hanggang sa nagpakasal kay James Yap (at nahiwalay din) ay hindi pa rin siya iniwan ng kanyang super bait na manager.
Hanggang sa nagkahiwalay sila nang mawala ang programa ni Kris sa ABS-CBN pero hindi pa rin siya tinalikuran ng ninong ng bunso niyang anak.
Baka Bet Mo: Dennis panay ang pagpo-post ng litrato ni Julia sa socmed pero dinededma lang daw ng anak?
Narito ang mahabang post ni Kris sa Instagram kalakip ang larawan nilang dalawa ni DTE.
“I waited until I got to exchange messages with PJ (Endrinal) before I posted. My choice of song says it all. I won’t deny that after working so closely together for almost 20 years, ‘lola deo’ and I drifted apart when I was no longer with ABS-CBN.
“But he shall ALWAYS remain the reason I learned the importance of honoring the job you’ve been given (when I was 28, a newly single mom, and he became my sole manager he imposed a 12 midnight curfew on me.
“He said: ‘You have a morning show that airs LIVE at 11 AM, if you’re seen out until 3 AM, the staff in that restaurant may mga nanay at asawa- audience mo sila. Nasa studio ka ng 9 AM, meaning bumangon ka para maligo etc at 7:30- paano ka gagalangin ng audience mo kung hindi mo binibigyan ng importansya ang trabaho mo?).
“Deo believed in me when many doubted (I was the 3rd choice to host Game KNB). He showed me the value of professionalism, respect, and generosity in sharing the credit with everyone involved in the production of my shows & movies.

“He instilled in me how to separate my personal problems from my duty to entertain (if only my dressing rooms had CCTV cameras- sometimes 5 mins before going live my tears would still be rolling nonstop.)
“He fought for me when I asked to take an indefinite leave from SNN & the BUZZ during my mom’s last few weeks alive because he understood why I refused to leave her hospital room.
“He was a generous & thoughtful ninong to Bimb. He wrote the most beautiful messages in his cards, all of them I scanned so that I’d forever have copies of his heartfelt greetings,” pahayag ni Kris.
Sa unang pagkakataon ay inamin ni Kris na nagkaroon siya ng tampo kay DTE nang lumipad siya patungong ibang bansa para magpagamot at tila hindi siya kinumusta nito kaya hindi na rin siya nag-reach out.
“For 16 years not a day passed that we didn’t communicate. I’m now so sorry for my failure to be the one to reach out because it hurt me when I failed to hear from him personally during my time of grief & the time my health started deteriorating.
“My wrong choice prevented us from being each other’s support system when we should’ve been there for each other. I’m sharing this for others to see that pride in the end only leaves us with regret,” aniya pa.
At dito inamin ni Kris na si DTE ang dahilan kung bakit siya naging matagumpay sa kanyang karera.
“Please know LA, I never ‘unloved’ you. And I am proud to declare- I’d never have become KRIS without the magical guidance of the creative genius that was DEO ENDRINAL,” lahad ni Kris.
