Shuvee Etrata on friendship with AZ Martinez: 'Right now we're good naman'

Shuvee Etrata and AZ Martinez experienced a rough patch in their friendship inside the "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition."

In the first face to face nominations of the season, AZ and her duo River Joseph, nominated Shuvee and her duo Klarisse de Guzman for eviction. ShuKla eventually got evicted from Bahay ni Kuya.

On the sidelines of the "Pinoy Big Brother: The Big ColLove" concert on Sunday, GMA News Online caught up with Shuvee to ask her about the status of her friendship with AZ.

"Right now we're good naman. 'Yung pag-uusap namin, hindi pa 'yung sobrang seryoso," Shuvee said. 

"Pero again AZ has been my friend for a long time and some things never changed. So I'm just glad I'm able to share this stage with her today," she added.

Shuvee previously said that she felt betrayed when AzVer nominated ShuKla, citing her previous violations of talking about the outside world.

"I-acknowledge ko lang din naman po, I felt betrayed nung time po na 'yun but malaki naman po 'yung heart ko to forgive her and we found our way back to each other naman," she said.

The two of them got to talk after the nomination, and AZ told Shuvee that she did not want to lose their friendship and she did not intend to hurt her.

When ShuKla returned as house challengers, AZ burst into tears and apologized to them while embracing them tightly.

"I hope she'll give me a chance sa labas pa. Sana pag-usapan pa rin namin and I hope we're OK pero I understand if we're not," said AZ when Vince asked her about Shuvee.

"Pero hindi ko susukuan 'yung friendship na 'yon. Importante 'yon sa 'kin. Mahal ko siya, alam niya 'yon," she added.

"Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition" ran from March to July, with the duo of Brent Manalo and Mika Salamanca (BreKa) being hailed as the Big Winner Duo. —MGP, GMA Integrated News
