Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition housemate Will Ashley shared what surprised him the most to discover about himself during his time inside the house.
"One thing na na-surprise ako siguro 'yung kaya ko makipag-connect agad, 'yung mga house guests na pumapasok. Kasi before talaga bago 'tong PBB, hindi po talaga ako makausap ng maayos. I mean, nakakausap naman ako pero 'yung conversation, 'yung makilala ako, hindi talaga. Sobrang taas po ng walls ko," he said in an interview with Bianca Gonzalez for the Paano Ba 'To podcast.
When asked what he's most proud of about himself during his journey inside the PBB house, he responded: "Natutunan ko talaga is 'yung mabuhay ka ng walang regrets. Ngayon po na nakalabas na kami sa outside world or sa Bahay Ni Kuya, nakakatuwa po na nakikita ko sa sarili ko na wow kaya ko pala 'yun, bakit hindi ko siya nagawa before? Sobrang laking tulong talaga ng PBB house sa akin kasi naging vocal ako, na-express ko na 'yung sarili ko, na-express ko 'yung nararamdaman ko."
In the same interview, the actor, who began his showbiz career as a child star, also reflected on the most important lesson he has learned over the years in the industry.
"Biggest lesson I've learned siguro is to really love what you're doing. Kasi once nakuha mo 'yung pagmamahal na 'yan, never ka ng magsto-stop. And never stop learning of course kasi isa rin 'yan sa bagay na makakatulong sa'yo kalaunan sa iyong career, mapashowbiz man o sa ibang trabaho, madadala at madadala mo 'yan," he stated.
Will was hailed as the 2nd Big Placer alongside his duo partner Ralph de Leon in Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition.
Following the conclusion of his journey inside the house, Will took to social media to share a heartfelt message, reflecting on his journey inside the PBB house.
"Lumaban at kinaya. Hey outside world! Maraming maraming salamat po!" he began his post.
Looking back on his journey inside the PBB house, Will admitted that it was challenging. "My journey inside the house was rough. I went through a lot of ups and downs. But thank God, I managed to get through everything," he remarked.
He then thanked his fellow housemates for their unwavering support and friendship "Sobrang pasasalamat sa mga HOUSEMATES na nakasama ko sa loob ng bahay na talagang minahal at sinuportahan ako. I’m grateful for yall!!" he stated.
Will also acknowledged the fans who stood by him throughout the show.
"Maraming salamat po sa walang sawang pag mamahal at suportang ibinigay niyo sa akin. Hindi ko man po kayo nakita sa loob ng 4 na buwan, naramdaman ko po ng sobra yung pag-mamahal ninyo. Maraming salamat po sa pag laban niyo sa akin," he said.
