FANS of Megastar Sharon Cuneta teased her to finally stop crying after her husband, former senator Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan, secured a fresh term in the Senate in the 2025 midterm elections.
Netizens recalled Cuneta’s emotional appeals during a press conference leading up to the polls, where she tearfully asked the public to support her husband’s candidacy.
The veteran actress also drew attention online for breaking down as she questioned why some people refused to vote for Pangilinan.
In a Facebook post after his apparent win, Cuneta expressed gratitude to those who backed her husband.
“Maraming salamat po sa inyong mga nagtitiwala, naniniwala, sumusuporta, nangampanya, nagtiyaga sa hirap, init at pagod, nagdasal at bumoto kay Kiko kahapon! Mabuhay ang ating mahal na Pilipinas! May God bless us all. Mahal na mahal po namin kayo!” she wrote.
Fans celebrated the victory with some light teasing.
“Congrats po. Huwag ka na pong umiyak, Ms. Shawie, panalo na si Mister!” one comment read.
“Tahan na, Ate Shawie,” another added.
