Princess Aliyah, Ashley Sarmiento name each other as safe spaces inside PBB house

Princess Aliyah and Ashley Sarmiento found comfort in each other while inside Bahay ni Kuya.

In separate interviews with GMA News Online, the “Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0” housemates said they became each other’s safe space during emotional moments in the competition.

Princess said it was Ashley whom she turned to whenever she had personal struggles.

“Si Ashley talaga. Kasi nakasabay ko siya dati sa Sparkle Teens, so magkaibigan na talaga kami. So kapag may problema, may gusto akong sabihin, sa kaniya talaga ako pumupunta,” she said, adding she would also miss fellow housemate Lella Ford the most following their stint.

The feeling was mutual for Ashley.

“Si Princess, day one ko ‘yan. As in, parang week one pa lang, tapos few days pa lang, nagka-crash out na kami do’n sa labas ng Bahay ni Kuya, doon sa may garden area,” she said.

She said they would talk about missing their families and even simple comforts in the Outside World.

“Sinasabi namin, ‘I miss my family. I miss eating ramen.’ Partida, wala pang isang buwan ‘yon. Wala pang two weeks. Pero siya talaga. Si Princess talaga,” Ashley said.

Princess and Ashley are part of the Kapuso Big Four.

On Tuesday, they were welcomed with a heartwarming homecoming at the GMA Network compound alongside Caprice Cayetano and Heath Jornales.
