Lee Victor to Heath Jornales: 'Rooting for you my Big Winner'
Lee Victor and Heath Jornales have one of the most beautiful friendships in the "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0."
That's why it was heartbreaking when they had to go against each other during the third eviction night of the reality show. Heath was visibly devastated after hearing he was safe, while Lee already accepted his fate even before the announcement.
After leaving Bahay ni Kuya, Lee paid tribute to Heath on Instagram Stories, continuing what he started on the podium as they awaited Bianca Gonzalez to call one of their names.
"I went into [PBB] wanting people to finally know me, but I walked out with so much more - a friend like Heath, who didn't just see me, but truly believed in me. [Heath Jornales] rooting for you my Big Winner," he said.
He added the song "You've Got a Friend" by James Taylor.
Heath supported Lee just as fiercely, telling some of the housemates that if it were up to him, he would gladly give his place inside the house to his friend.
On Sunday's episode, it was also revealed that his Christmas wish was for Lee to stay in Bahay ni Kuya. He said that Lee has a lot more to show and he is truly PBB material.
After Lee left the house, Heath broke down in tears as the housemates comforted him. In the confession room, he told Kuya that he was not able to give Lee a proper goodbye and wished he hugged his friend more.
Lee was evicted along with Kapamilya housemate Iñigo Jose.
