On Wednesday’s episode of Unang Hirit, the Kapamilya 3rd Big Placer said that he and Lella had a genuine friendship during their time inside the Bahay Ni Kuya.

“Hindi ko talaga inasahan kasi sa loob ng bahay, magkaibigan talaga kami,” he said.

Joaquin emerged as the 3rd Big Placer alongside Ashley Sarmiento in “Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0.”
