In an interview with PEP, Reyes did not answer directly whether or not she invited Avelino to the party.

“Basta ang sa akin, lahat ng nagmamahal kay Aki, nandito. Lahat ng malapit sa puso ni Aki, nandito,” she said.

Reyes then said she is not expecting anything at all from Avelino.

“Sa totoo lang, in a general sense, wala naman talaga akong ine-expect from him. Okay naman kami ni Aki. I think napaparamdam ko naman sa kanya ang love ng isang magulang. 'Yung love na kailangan niya, 'yun,” she said.

While Avelino was not around during the celebration, guests noticed that Paolo Contis, Reyes’s current boyfriend, was at the party.
