MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – First Lady Liza Marcos says she is very devastated that ex-Vice President Leni Robredo is not attending President Bongbong Marcos’ State of the Nation Address (SONA) on July 24.

Robredo was invited but has declined.

The First Lady told The Adobo Chronicles that she was so looking forward to sitting next to Robredo at the VIP section of the Batasang Pambansa (National Legislature). She said it would have been the perfect opportunity for the two women to kiss and make up and to talk about some Marites (gossip).

Unconfirmed reports say that Robredo is planning her own SONA (State of doNation Address) on Monday to report on the first year of her Angat Buhay Foundation.
