Ralph de Leon and Charlie Fleming will have a second chance at proving themselves worthy of being the Big Winner of “Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Edition Collab,” as they bagged the wildcard slots to reenter the “PBB” House.
De Leon and Fleming are the former Kapamilya and Kapuso housemates who were given a chance to return to the “PBB” House after receiving the most votes, as announced on the show’s May 18 episode.
Based on the results, de Leon received 81.28% of the votes, while ex-housemates AC Bonifacio and Kira Balinger had 14.22% and 4.50%, respectively.
Fleming earned 40.44% of the votes while Josh Ford and Ashley Ortega trailed behind with 33.16% and 26.40%.
De Leon made a mark as the “PBB” House’s “saing King,” which came from a playful rivalry between himself and Emilio Daez on who cooks the rice for their fellow housemates. He was the latest evictee with co-duo Josh Ford.
Meanwhile, Fleming is the youngest housemate of this year’s edition, and stood out for her headstrong and hardworking attitude despite her age. She was evicted with Balinger last April.
Premiering last March 9, PBB: Celebrity Edition Collab marked the first season where erstwhile network rivals ABS-CBN and GMA collaborated on the auspices of the franchise, the first to air on the Kapuso channel, and the first full celebrity edition since 2008. /edv
