Will Ashley finally hugs his mom; Ralph De Leon gets boost from dad
Kuya's surprise for his Big Four housemates continued on the latest episode of "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition."
On Thursday, Will Ashley reunited with his mom and Ralph De Leon reunited with his dad as a special treat from Kuya ahead of the Big Night.
Will showed everyone why he's the Mama's Dreambae of Cavite and the Nation's Son, turning into a soft little boy when he saw Mommy Mindy in the living room.
He ran towards her and hugged her at once, something that he had wanted to do since the first nomination night. He also cried happy tears and told her repeatedly, "Miss kita."
After the emotional mother and son reunion, Will saw that Mommy Mindy brought his favorite food in the house: his beloved siomai.
He introduced his mom to the housemates and they all sat down in the dining area to chat.
A little later, Ralph's father, Tito Raffy, entered the house from the confession room. Ralph ran to greet him and also hugged him tight.
Tito Raffy brought Ralph's favorite food, shrimp, which he shared with the rest of the housemates. The elder De Leon gamely went along with the housemates with they began to tease AZ Martinez with his presence.
Mommy Mindy and Tito Raffy also joined forces with their respective children to begin the housemates' weekly task.
Mommy Mindy and Will were the first duo to try maneuvering the ball in the "Road to Big Night" challenge. They succeeded dropping the ball in the target hole after a few tries of figuring out their technique.
Ralph and Tito Raffy followed suit and did it perfectly in one try. The housemates will continue doing the task themselves, as Mommy Mindy and Tito Raffy had to end their visit.
Previously, Esnyr and Charlie Fleming were also visited by their father and mother. RaWi and CharEs were the first two duos to make it to the Big Four.
The remaining two spots will be decided via the upcoming Big Jump challenges.
