Kris Lawrence says he won’t waste ‘second chance’ with Katrina Halili

June 20 ------ After more than a decade apart, R&B singer Kris Lawrence is embracing what appears to be a new chapter with former partner Katrina Halili, admitting that if he is ever given a second chance in love, it is one he does not plan on wasting.

Kris and Katrina, who separated in 2014 after five years together, share a daughter, Katie. Earlier this year, the former couple reconnected and began rebuilding their relationship through co-parenting. Something Kris said has transformed not only their family dynamic, but Katie’s overall well-being.

In an interview with Hot Takes, Kris reflected on the importance of maintaining love and respect for an ex-partner, especially when raising a child together. “Hundred percent. As I said before, I’m a very energy-based person, right? So, the kid feels like it. The kids will always feel it when you’re not okay,” he maintained.

For Kris, the balance between them as both parents plays a crucial role in Katie’s emotional development, given that she has mild autism. He explained that because their daughter carries parts of both him and Katrina, harmony between them directly affects her sense of security. “If I’m out of the picture, yung energy balance ni Katie is not going to be all there. You’ll have to draw from other sources. Kung hindi kami okay, hindi rin magiging okay si Katie.”
