Netizens noticed that most of Kris Aquino’s ex-partners are with UniTeam, headed by presidential aspirant Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ Marcos Jr.
Facebook page ‘Federal Pilipinas’ first shared the slanted observation and the post went viral.
It showed Herbert Bautista, James Yap, and Philip Salvador wearing red to support the dictator’s son’s candidacy.
Yap is currently running for councilor in San Juan under the team of Mayor Francis Zamora, who backs the UniTeam.

Salvador is a close ally of the administration, while Bautista has one of the ‘clearer’ paths to winning a seat in the Senate.
The former Quezon City mayor also caught the voters’ attention after Aquino took a shot at him during her speech at the Pink rally in Tarlac on March 23.
“‘Di ba yung isa nasa Uniteam?! Yung ex? Oh, huwag niyong iboto yun ha. Sayang ang boto dahil hindi marunong tumupad sa mga ipinangako. Deadma please,” she told the crowd.
Kasama rin sa Cabanatuan ang senatorial aspirant na si Herbert Bautista. Tututok na raw siya sa kampanya kasama sina BBM at Mayor Sara, matapos maalis sa Lacson-Sotto senatorial slate @News5PH @onenewsph pic.twitter.com/rtovE681sD

Aquino and Bautista dated for seven years before she got into a relationship with Mel Sarmiento, a close friend of her late brother Noynoy Aquino.
She recently broke up with Sarmiento and is in life-threatening health conditions.
