Amid the expiry of Willie Revillame’s contract, the television host met with Manny Villar
WILLIE REVILLAME – The Wowowin host met with former senator Manny Villar amid the expiry of his contract on GMA-7.
Netizens were shocked and saddened by GMA-7’s announcement that the contract of the television host with the Kapuso network is about to end.
In a statement, GMA said that Willie Revillame who’s also known as Kuya Wil will be leaving GMA. Apparently, the network did not cite the reason.
Along with the announcement with regards to the expiration of his contract is the last airing of his show Wowowin.
“Willie Revillame’s contract with GMA Network is set to end on the 15th of this month. His show ‘Wowowin’ will air until Friday, Feb. 11,” said GMA Network in a statement.
Amid the expiry of his contract, several photos of him alongside former senate president Manny Villar went viral online.
According to Anna Feliciano, the longtime choreographer of Kuya Wil, it was Villar himself who visited the television host.
Also present at the meeting was Manny’s daughter Las Piñas Rep. Camille Villar.

It can be recalled that recently, Villar’s company Advanced Media Broadcasting System Inc. (AMBS) acquired channel 2, a frequency previously used by ABS-CBN.
Currently, reports are surfacing that there might be a deal between ABS-CBN and AMBS to re-broadcast Kapamilya Network’s programs on channel 2 but it is still not confirmed.
Revillame has not made a statement about his plans once his contract with GMA expired.
