<p>Former <em>Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition</em> housemates Bianca De Vera and Will Ashley — popularly known as the “WillCa” or “WillBi” tandem— are still feeling overwhelmed after their memorable stint inside Kuya’s house.</p><p>In an exclusive interview with PUSH ABS-CBN, the duo reflected on their emotional journey and what they’ve missed most since the season ended.</p><p>“Honestly nakaka-sepanx po ‘yung bahay. Kanina pinaguusapan I was just thinking about it. Sabi ko, ‘Gusto ko bumalik inside the house‘. Nakakamiss ‘yung peace, ‘yung serenity and ‘yung security na dinadala ng Bahay ni Kuya,” Bianca shared. “Namimiss din po namin si Kuya.”</p><div><strong></strong></div><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@willxashley/video/7524357469628353799" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7524357469628353799" id="v13992840080692092" style="max-width:605px;min-width:325px"><iframe name="__tt_embed__v13992840080692092" sandbox="allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-scripts allow-top-navigation allow-same-origin" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed/v2/7524357469628353799?lang=en-US&amp;referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com%2F%23%2Fworkspace%2Fmonitoring%3Fitem%3Durn%3Anewsml%3Aod2-workbench-api.abs-cbn.com%3A2025-07-13T20%3A09%3A50.882019%3Acb62467f-b6eb-4dde-a764-7c10deb57f26%26action%3Dedit" style="width:100%;height:739px;display:block;visibility:unset"></iframe></blockquote><script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script><p>Will echoed Bianca’s sentiments, sharing, “Ako rin po sobrang sepanx talaga kasi parang apat na buwan kami nandoon sa loob ng Bahay ni Kuya and kami-kami lang iyong nagkakakitaan. Kumbaga ‘yung relationship po na nabuild namin sobrang deep na rin po talaga to the point na kahit tahimik kami, naiintindihan namin ang isa&#x27;t isa.”</p><p>Will recently wrapped up his <em>PBB</em> journey as the Second Big Placer alongside his final duo partner, Ralph De Leon. Despite the adjustment to life outside, the warm welcome from fans has helped ease the transition.</p><p>The tandem recently attended a heartfelt fundraising event organized by their fans in honor of Bianca’s late dog, Peach, and Will’s cat, Jerry. The event featured performances from OPM artists and served a greater cause, a gesture that deeply touched the pair.</p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1752470633981WillCa Will Ashley Bianca De Vera open up about life after PBB, gratitude for fans.png" style="width:600px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><strong></strong></div><p>“We are eternally grateful for organizing this event. Napakaswerte namin sa kanila. Kasi they are doing this for a bigger cause, greater than the both of us. Nakakaproud magkaroon ng mga supporters na nagmamahal ng ganito,” Bianca happily shared.</p><p>“Grabe ‘yung ginawa nila itong event na ito. Not only for the two of us but of course sa isang malaking cause and ayon ‘yung isang bagay na gusto namin mangyari ni Bianca. Nakakatuwa at sobrang happy ako na nandito ako ngayon,” Will continued.</p><div><strong></strong></div><div class="twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered" style="display:flex;max-width:550px;width:100%;margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:10px"><iframe id="twitter-widget-0" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" title="X Post" src="https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1943952159671980384&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com%2F%23%2Fworkspace%2Fmonitoring%3Fitem%3Durn%3Anewsml%3Aod2-workbench-api.abs-cbn.com%3A2025-07-13T20%3A09%3A50.882019%3Acb62467f-b6eb-4dde-a764-7c10deb57f26%26action%3Dedit&amp;sessionId=454a391df1b88f4c4f41e65c0f459306037a5cf8&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px" style="position:static;visibility:visible;width:550px;height:648px;display:block;flex-grow:1" data-tweet-id="1943952159671980384"></iframe></div><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charSet="utf-8"></script><div><strong></strong></div><p>Bianca and Will admitted they never expected such a strong, heartfelt response from fans, especially after leaving the house.</p><p>“Sobrang overwhelming talaga na para bang kinukwestiyon ko yung sarili ko if totoo ba iyon kasi sa loob ng bahay sobrang overthink namin.

Another dream come true! Thank you po, Ms Eliza! Kilig na kilig po ako ng napakinggan ko.”</div><p>“Ang ganda noong song and I’m such a huge fan of Miss Eliza talaga. ‘Museo’ pa lang. And I’m a big fan of OPM din so alam mo ‘yung feeling na kahit papaano may ambag ka na sa OPM!” she quipped, making Will laugh.</p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1752470921659WillCa Will Ashley Bianca De Vera  open up about life after PBB gratitude for fans 3.png" style="width:600px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><strong></strong></div><p>The duo also enjoys watching fan edits and video tributes, saying it’s one of the ways they feel the love and creativity of their supporters.</p><p>“I still can’t believe na ’yung mga suporta ay dumating hanggang sa favorite OPM artists namin. It’s so big big blessings to us. I’ve seen the edits, I’ve seen how creative the people are as well and to be supportive like that, it really means the world to us,” Bianca said.</p><p>Despite their busy schedules, including individual projects and an upcoming fan concert, Bianca and Will remain grounded and deeply appreciative of their supporters.</p><p>“Maraming maraming salamat po!
