Kylie Padilla has expressed support for AJ Raval after the latter confirmed that she has three children with Aljur Abrenica, the former’s ex-husband.

In an exclusive statement that aired in “Fast Talk With Boy Abunda” on Thursday, Kylie said that AJ’s revelation was such a courageous and brave act.

“I’m happy that as a mother, AJ feels a sense of freedom for her children. That was very courageous and brave of her,” Kylie said.

“I’m proud as a mother, too. I know that was the right thing for her to do,” she added.

She went on to share that Alas and Axl have a good relationship with their siblings

“It’s true, sobrang mahal ng mga anak ko ang mga kapatid nila, and that means everything to me and to us as their parents. Labas na ang mga issues namin dun,” Kylie shared.

Ending her statement, the Kapuso actress expressed hope for everyone to find peace and also asked the public to show AJ “some empathy.”

“I hope we all find peace and that we also give AJ some empathy. Puwede na sila mag date magkakapatid ng hindi nagtatago,” she said.

Earlier, Kylie shared a brief message on social media after AJ’s revelation.

While she did not name names on her Facebook post, she said she had long been aware of the situation.

“Ito lang po comment ko para matapos na matagal ko na pong alam pero s’yempre inuna po namin ang kapakanan ng mga bata. Sobrang close sila at ‘yun pinaka importante,” she said.

“Happy that now ‘di na kailangan magtago. Proud of you. Peace all around. Sana matapos na drama,” she added.

AJ made the revelation on “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda” on Wednesday, also sharing that her second child, Aaron, had passed away.

She added that her kids know one another, including Aljur’s children with Kylie, Alas and Axl.

Aljur and Kylie tied the knot in 2018 and separated in 2021 after Aljur cheated on Kylie.

AJ has clarified that she was not a third party in their relationship.

AJ and Aljur made their relationship public on Valentine’s Day 2023. They have three kids together.
