Kitty Duterte, Mom Honeylet Avanceña Join Campaign Sortie for PDP-Laban bets
HONEYLET AVANCEÑA – Former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s long-time partner joined the PDP-Laban campaign sortie and gave a message for the Filipinos.
The children of former Pres. Rodrigo Duterte committed to campaign fervently for the PDP-Laban candidates. The former Chief Executive who is currently detained under the custody of the International Criminal Court in the Hague, Netherlands is the chairman of the party.

Duterte is faced with an allegation of crimes against humanity. Vice Pres. Sara Duterte who just returned to the Philippines from the Hague last month finalized her father’s ICC legal team before returning to the country. She is currently busy campaigning for her senatorial bets.

Vice Pres. Sara Duterte is endorsing Sen. Imee Marcos, Las Piñas Representative Camille Villar, and the PDP-Laban bets in the upcoming May 2025 Elections. Here are the candidates who belong to the #Duter10 of former Pres. Rodrigo Roa Duterte:
- Sen. Christopher “Bong” Go
- Sen. Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa
- Congressman Rodante Marcoleta
- singer Jimmy Bondoc
- Jayvee Hinlo
- Raul Lambino
- actor Philip Salvador
- Atty. Victor Rodriguez
- Pastor Apollo Quiboloy
- Doc Marites Mata
According to Vice Pres. Sara Duterte, her brother, Davao City First District Congressman Paolo Duterte who is still in The Hague now, and their youngest sibling, Kitty Duterte, have also committed to campaign for the #Duter10. Kitty’s mom, Honeylet Avanceña, also joined the recent campaign sortie for the PDP-Laban candidates.
Honeylet and Kitty have also just returned from the Hague following the return of Vice Pres. Duterte. They went to The Hague ahead of former Pres. Rodrigo Duterte’s birthday last March 28. The former Chief Executive turned 80.

Based on a social media post of SMNI, Honeylet Avanceña said only Kitty Duterte will supposedly speak at the campaign event but she was asked to give a message. According to her, her and former Pres. Duterte’s daughter is forced to mature because of what happened.
“Dapat ‘yung anak ko lang ang magsasalita eh. Sabi ko, ‘Ano bang gustong marinig niyo? ‘Yung lahat ng sakit sa dibdib?’ Yung anak ko, baby pa sana pero napilitan mag-mature dahil sa nangyari. Hindi naman ho natin maipagkait kung ano nangyari,” Honeylet said.
Honeylet Avanceña stressed that it is time for the Filipinos to make better choices. She called on the Filipino people to choose leaders who are good and honest.
“Pero ito ho talaga, sana ho tayo Pilipino, magtanda na tayo. Gusto na akong lumuhod, umiyak dito, magtanda na tayo. Pumili na tayo ng mga taong matino, matapat, at ‘yung magsisilbi sa bayan. Hindi pagsisilbihan ang sarili,” Duterte’s long-time partner said based on the post.
Vice Pres. Sara Duterte is currently busy campaigning for the PDP Laban candidates, Sen. Imee Marcos, and Las Piñas Representative Camille Villar. In endorsing Sen. Imee Marcos, Vice Pres. Sara Duterte claimed she’s different from Pres. Bongbong Marcos.
