Vince Maristela on friendship with Shuvee Etrata: ‘Napaka-genuine niyang tao’

Vince Maristela and Shuvee Etrata shared a close friendship in “Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition," which did not go unnoticed by netizens. 

In an interview with GMA News Online, the ex-PBB housemate opened up about his friendship with Shuvee, describing her as a “genuine and honest” person.

“Si Shuvee naman talaga ay friend ko bago pumasok sa Bahay ni Kuya. Napaka-genuine niyang tao, napaka-honest niyang tao tungkol sa nararamdaman niya,” Vince said of Shuvee.

According to Vince, he was able to help Shuvee adjust inside Bahay ni Kuya because he understood what she was going through as a fellow newcomer.

“Siguro nung pag-pasok lang din po talaga nandoon kami para sa isa’t-isa dahil naramdaman niya kung ano 'yung naramdam ko din noong bagong pasok dahil na din po [huli] talaga siya pumasok,” Vince shared.

“So, kung ano 'yung mga na-i-vent niya noon, kung ano 'yung mga nakukwento niya tungkol sa nararamdaman niya sobrang navavalidate ko po talaga at natutulungan ko siya kung paano makapag-adjust sa loob ng bahay ni Kuya,” he continued, adding that Shuvee was also one of the persons who have helped him inside the house.

Vince added that he would have liked to pick Shuvee as his duo if given the chance because he feels that they will be there for each other no matter what happens. 

“Kung pwede lang maging ka-duo 'yung Kapuso parang siya 'yung pipiliin ko. Kasi alam mo 'yung parang nakaramdam ako na kahit anong mangyari, nandun kayo para sa isa't isa," he said. 

Vince was the latest housemate to exit Bahay ni Kuya. He received the lowest percentage of save votes among the Kapuso housemates, garnering only 9.26% during the show's first-ever individual eviction."

He was evicted alongside Kapamilya star Xyriel Manabat.
