Several netizens can’t help but speculate as to how Llamanzares was able to afford the luxury shoes. However, many were quick to defend Llamanzares saying that there’s nothing wrong if he was able to purchase it using his hard-earned money.<br /><br />Meanwhile, Poe revealed that she already discussed the issue with her son when it first came out last month. According to Poe, Llamanzares showed her how much the shoes cost.<br /><br />Poe also stressed that Llamanzares used to work but was asked to take a leave in order for his company to maintain objectivity as his mother is running for president in the upcoming May 2016 elections. Llamanzares used to worked as a neophyte reporter for a television network. <br /><br />During a press conference, Poe said: “Basta galing sa pinaghirapan mo, pinag-ipunan mo hindi mo naman ninakaw at siguraduhin mo naman na hindi naman labis-labis at ‘yung sa kanya naman matagal din nang pinag-ipunan din ‘yun. ‘Yun lang naman ‘yung sa kanya.”<br /><br />(As long as you worked hard, saved for it, didn’t steal and made sure that it’s not too much, then it’s fine. He saved long enough to be able to purchase it.)<br /><br />Poe also urged the public to spare her family from being dragged in political issues.<br /><b><i>-Mini/ The Summit Express</i></b></div>
