Lotlot, Matet and Siblings React to John Rendez’s Emotional Tribute to Nora Aunor — “The Words Are Just…”

In the days following the passing of Philippine cinema icon Nora Aunor, tributes poured in from all corners of the industry. But one message stood out—an emotional, tear-filled post from longtime companion and controversial figure John Rendez. His words, filled with grief, longing, and memories, were meant to honor the Superstar. However, her children—Lotlot de Leon, Matet de Leon, and their siblings—have now spoken out, and their reaction is far from what many expected.

John Rendez’s Public Tribute

John Rendez, a rapper-actor known for his close and often-questioned relationship with Nora Aunor, took to social media with a lengthy message mourning her loss. He described her as “his one true friend,” “the woman who gave him meaning,” and “the light of his life.” The post, accompanied by throwback photos and poetic lines, quickly made headlines.

“I will never forget your voice, your laughter, your pain,” he wrote. “You were my Superstar not just on screen, but every single day of my life.”

It was a message that drew both sympathy and skepticism.

Lotlot and Matet’s Chilling Response

When asked about John’s emotional statement, Lotlot de Leon gave a brief but cutting remark:

“The words are just… words.”

Matet, more direct, added:

“People say a lot of things when someone dies. But where were they when she needed peace, real care, real family?”

The siblings, who were raised in the shadow of Nora Aunor’s fame and private struggles, have long hinted at tensions involving certain individuals in their mother’s life—people they say were “around her, but not truly for her.”

A Rift Long Ignored

While never outright naming names in the past, the de Leon children have been vocal about the emotional gaps in their relationship with their mother, especially in her later years. Matet once broke down in an interview, confessing that communication had grown cold between them, with outside influences possibly driving a wedge between Nora and her children.

Now, with their mother gone, the pain appears rawer—and the presence of figures like Rendez resurfacing in the public eye has stirred up unresolved emotions.

“Everyone wants to be seen mourning now,” one of the siblings reportedly said. “But grief is more than just flowery posts. It’s about what you gave when the cameras weren’t rolling.”

Fans Divided

Social media has since been divided. Some fans praised John Rendez for his heartfelt words and long-time loyalty to Nora, while others sided with her children, suggesting that no tribute can erase years of unanswered questions.

One comment reads:

“Respect to John, but the children have the right to feel what they feel. They lived the truth behind the fame.”

A Legacy Entangled in Silence and Sound

Nora Aunor’s death has not only marked the end of a legendary era in showbiz, but also unmasked the delicate, sometimes painful dynamics within her personal circle. And as her children seek to honor her in their own way—quietly, truthfully, and without the grandstanding—one thing is clear:

The Superstar may be gone, but the stories, the wounds, and the truths left behind are only beginning to unfold.
