Sparkle’s very own and ex-Pinoy Big Brother housemate Shuvee Etrata turned emotional as she received a warm homecoming from her family and friends organized by Sparkle at GMA Network on Tuesday.

Shuvee’s parents, Jorena and Michael, were both in attendance during the festive celebration, flying all the way from Cebu to show support for their daughter who most recently got voted out of the PBB: Celebrity Collab Edition house. 

According to Aubrey Carampel’s report on 24 Oras, it was the avid fans of Klarisse ‘Klang’ de Guzman– Shuvee’s last Kapamilya duo partner– who sponsored her parents’ flight tickets from Cebu to Manila. The Kapuso actress hails from Bantayan Island, Cebu. 

“Hindi ko alam anong gagawin kong pasasalamat, kasi pera talaga yung binigay nila na pagpapalipad, at nakita ko yung mga magulang ko after missing them so much inside the house,” the 'Island Ate ng Cebu' said.

The 24-year-old Sang’gre star is ecstatic because of the overwhelming support that she’s been getting since exiting the PBB house following her and Klang’s most recent eviction. 

“Masaya lang po ako na natutupad na yung mga pangarap namin, kasi pinangarap lang po namin ‘to ni Mommy before– yung ganito ang pag-welcome sa akin, hindi ko po alam na mamahalin ako nang ganito,” Shuvee said, pertaining to the tremendous influx of support from netizens and PBB fans that have come to love her personality inside the Big Brother house. 

“Alam naman natin kung ano yung pinaglalaban niya, alam namin yung lahat ng sakripisyo niya, kaya proud ako,” said Shuvee’s mom Jorena.

Gracing the momentous celebration was First Vice President of Sparkle GMA Artist Center and Talent Development and Management Joy Marcelo, as well as her best friends from Sparkle Roxie Smith and Skye Chua. 

Recently signed Sparkle actor and confirmed suitor Anthony Constantino was also in attendance.

This, after the tandem of ShuKla (Shuvee Etrata + Klarisse de Guzman) bid the PBB house goodbye during the 6th Duo Eviction last June 15 where they garnered the least number of votes at 31.50%, just a shade below second placer AZ Martinez and River Joseph aka AzVer (31.67%), and Dustin Yu and Bianca De Vera aka DusBi (36.83%).
