I’m grateful for yall!!”
He also expressed his overwhelming gratitude to the fans who supported him throughout his journey inside PBB.
“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 (Thank you so much for the unwavering love and support you’ve given me. Even though I didn’t get to see you for four months, I truly felt all the love you sent my way. Thank you for fighting for me),” he wrote.
“Maraming salamat din po sa pag mamahal niyo sa amin ni @ralph_dl , ang laban na pong ito ay para sa inyo. Sobrang out of words pa din ako. But isa lang ang masasabi ko. Mahal na mahal na mahal ko kayong lahat (Thank you so much for the love you’ve given me and @ralph_dl. This fight is for all of you. I’m still out of words, but if there’s one thing I can say, it’s this: I love you all very much). With all my heart.”
The 22-year-old actor was among the first nominees of the celebrity edition, alongside his duo partner, River Joseph. However, both actors captured the hearts of viewers and made it to the Big Night with their respective pairs—Ralph de Leon (RaWi) and AZ Martinez (AZVer).
