Shuvee Etrata on fan ship with Ralph De Leon: ‘I appreciate Ralph’

During Shuvee Etrata’s time as a housemate on "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition," fans began shipping her with fellow housemate Ralph De Leon, coining ship names like RalphVee and ShuRalph.

In an interview with GMA News Online, the Island Ate of Cebu said she and Ralph actually view each other as worthy rivals.

“Kami kasi ni Ralph, we see each other as, ano talaga, parang head to head kami. Palagi kaming nag-ba-butt heads. Parati kaming mataray sa isa't isa,” Shuvee said.

But the Sparkle star clarified she appreciates Ralph, as he was among the boys she grew closer with inside the house.

"Yung sobrang pagiging comfortable ko sa kaniya. I can talk to him about all things,” Shuvee said. “I can really, you know, I'm just really happy na nakilala ko si Ralph and nabigyan ako ulit ng chance na makilala siya after. Kasi natanggal ko siya. Pagbalik niya, nandun kami sa secret room. Doon ko lang na actually na-appreciate yung existence ni Ralph sa loob ng bahay,” she added.

Shuvee described Ralph as someone who is “very competitive” but with a heart.

“Like, gentle naman siya with me. Pero pag competition, competition talaga tingin namin sa isa't isa,” Shuvee said.

Shuvee and her duo Klarisse De Guzman were the latest housemates to exit from the PBB house. 

Meanwhile, Ralph and his final duo Will Ashley are one of the five duos battling for a big four spot.
