Ruffa Gutierrez raised the white flag for “peace, peace, peace.”

Ruffa Gutierrez left in the middle of her talk show The Buzz last Sunday because she got hurt by Kris Aquino’s remarks regarding her transfer to TV5. The alleged “walk out” happened during the Points of View segment (POV) (Read the related story here).

The issue was magnified when rival program “Showbiz Central” aired a phone patch interview with Ruffa’s mom, Annabelle Rama, expressing her disgust on Kris Aquino.

The Queen of All Media did not answer the strong statements issued by Annabelle Rama on her show but instead sent a text message to Philippine Entertainment Portal expressing her deepest apology to Ruffa.

Here’s an excerpt from the text message that Kris Aquino sent to Philippine Entertainment Portal:

“I would like to extend a loving hug to Ruffa. I viewed the tape & although I still feel I gave my comment w/ affection, maybe it made her feel even worse because she’s now moving in a new direction. We had what I believed was a good working relationship in the almost 2 years we were together on The Buzz.”

“I can also understand that Ruffa’s mom dislikes Noynoy & my family, maybe because of association & our vocal proclamation of admiration for Dingdong & his selfless contribution to help Noy’s presidential bid. It is w/ Ruffa that I enjoyed a healthy working relationship & I only have good words to say about her.

“To Ruffa, I sincerely apologize for causing u hurt…”

“…I want Ruffa to have a great career ahead of her—because she is a woman, raising 2 beautiful daughters. And I champion all women who triumph despite the odds—just like my own Mom.”

“As a woman, and as Ruffa’s Mom and the lola of Lorin & Venice, I respect u tita Annabelle and on behalf of our family, I apologize for the distress we caused yours. Hindi po ako mayabang, kaya ako nagpapakumbaba ngayon.”

“Thank u for your time & may God bless all of us w/ a peaceful week ahead.”
