This Monday, after months of petitioning Congress, the Senate finally tackled the long-pending bills on ABS-CBN’s franchise renewal. After the Senate’s deliberation on the media network’s compliance with its broadcast provisions, Vice Ganda and Anne Curtis took to social media to show support for their network.
Anne posted her thoughts on the hearing after following the coverage on television. She “personally felt like so many concerns and questions were finally answered by our bosses and lawyers.”ย

Vice Ganda likewise shared their sentiments on the hearing on Twitter. They first thanked all the Kapamilya supporters for their love throughout this ordeal, then joked about the now-famous ABS-CBN CEO being taken.
“We don’t want to break your hearts but yes, Carlo Katigbak already has a wife,” the tweet read.
