In a special video greeting, Ashley was seen thanking her fans and supporters outside the iconic PBB house.

“Sa lahat po ng supporters ko at nagmahal sa akin sa PBB, maraming maraming salamat po sa inyong lahat (To all my supporters and those who loved me in PBB, thank you so much to all of you),” she said.

“Hindi ko po alam kung ano ‘yung mararamdaman ko ngayon (I don’t know what to feel right now). I’m super overwhelmed. Kailangan ko munang i-process lahat ng nangyari kasi wala pa akong alam (I need to process first everything that has happened because I just don’t know yet),” she added.

Despite her PBB journey being cut short, she has remained grateful for everyone who has been cheering for her.

“But thank you so much for all the love and support, and I hope I got to inspire a lot of people,” she shared.

She was the first celebrity housemate alongside AC Bonifacio, who were evicted from the show’s historic Celebrity Collab edition last March 29.

Their duo, dubbed as ACLEY, only received 17.25% of the votes. Meanwhile, the two other duos, Ralph De Leon and Michael Sager (RaMi) and River Joseph and Will Ashley (WilVer), were both spared from the eviction night, earning 45.89% and 36.87%, respectively.

Following the end of her PBB journey, Mavy Legaspi penned a sweet message for his girlfriend.

“[I’m] so proud of you @ashleyortega. I am so happy the people got to know you better… and they love you!” he wrote. “Welcome back to the outside world, honey bunny!”

“A girl like you? So lovable,” he added.

In February 2025, the 26-year-old actress confirmed her relationship with the 24-year-old actor in an interview with Boy Abunda.

Ashley Ortega is an award-winning actress best known for her performance in the romance-drama film As If It’s True.
