Bianca Umali cries at Kuya's gift on 'Pinoy Big Brother'

GMA Network30-05-2025

Bianca Umali could not help but cry at Kuya's touching gesture on 'Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition.'
Before Kapuso Prime Gem exited Bahay ni Kuya, she had her final talk with Kuya in the Confession Room where she again brought out a childhood photo with her late mother, Mommy May.
'Maraming salamat din daw po, Kuya. Natupad po ninyo ang pangarap niya,' Bianca said.
'Baon ko po ito hanggang sa tumanda po ako, Kuya,' she added.
Noting that Bianca entered the house to honor her mother's memory and fulfill her dream as she was a big fan of the show, Kuya said 'Bago matapos ang kwento mo dito sa bahay, hayaan mo 'kong suklian ang pagmamahal ng nanay mo.'
He then surprised Bianca with a 'PBB' nameplate with the name May, and Bianca immediately cried. Big Brother also signed the back of the nameplate.
'Kuya, maraming maraming maraming salamat po,' Bianca cried.
'Sigurado po ako na sumasayaw po siya ngayon sa theme song po na 'Pinoy Ako' doon po sa langit.'
Kuya thanked Bianca and said, 'Sana napasaya natin siya.'
Bianca then talked to her mom. 'Mommy, may nameplate ka na. Housemate ka ha.'
On Instagram, Bianca posted a photo of her and her mom's nameplate, as well as her childhood picture with her mother, and shared what she called "my PBB story: Pumasok ng solo, lumabas ng may ka-duo."
"Nakakakiliiig," she exclaimed as she spelled out the names on their nameplates.
"Mga Kapuso at mga Kapamilya, maraming salamat po sa mainit na pagtanggap ninyo sa amin ng mommy ko inside the Pinoy Big Brother House," Bianca wrote before writing in all caps, "Kuya, mahal ka po namin! Grabe ka po opo!"
Bianca lost her Mommy May to breast cancer when she was only five years old and was later orphaned after her father died in 2010.
Raised by her grandmother, Mama Vicky, Bianca is a proud lola's girl.

Here's a closer look at Tarah Valencia's Miss Supranational 2025 finals gown

Rian Fernandez, the Filipino designer behind Tarah Valencia's Miss Supranational 2025 coronation night gown, shared a closer look at the Filipina beauty queen's show-stopping ensemble. On Instagram, Rian said that the architectural blue and pink cape gown was designed to make a bold and fashion-forward statement for Tarah. The dress had a dramatic off-the-shoulder neckline and exaggerated sculptural sleeves and came with matching mesh gloves encrusted with the same jewels placed on the dress. Tarah also shared gorgeous portraits of herself wearing the gown on her Instagram. "Draped in the hues of the sea, I rise like the power of the wave — calm, powerful, and proud," she wrote. "Every step. Every glide. Every tear. Every sweat dropped. Every lesson learned and unlearned. And every one of you has brought me here. I will forever be humbled for the realisation that I was meant to be here. That God saw this simple girl from Baguio worthy to represent a country so fierce and rich," she added. Adding dramatic flair and softness to the structured design are the flowing lavender chiffon panels, which cascade from the sleeves to the floor. Tarah made an impressive 3rd runner-up finish during the finals night held in Poland. In her introduction video, Tarah put the spotlight on her hometown, Baguio City. Eduarda Braum from Brazil won the Miss Supranational 2025 crown. —Carby Rose Basina/JCB, GMA Integrated News
