Will Ashley is willing to be the instrument to help Jillian Ward and Sofia Pablo settle their reported rift. In his GMA Integrated News interview with Nelson Canlas, which aired in "24 Oras" Tuesday, Will shared he is not in a position to say the reason behind Jillian and Sofia's feud. "Kasi honestly hindi rin naman po ako 'yung makakapag-ayos nun kundi silang dalawa lang naman din po," he said. However, Will is ready to help Jillian and Sofia bury the hatchet if they are both open to talking to each other. "Kung mabibigyan ako ng pagkakataon at pareho po silang bukas para mag-usap or maayos kung ano man po talaga 'yung pinagmulan po talaga or ano po 'yung napakaraming rason po nun, gagawin ko po," he said. In January, Sofia opened up on the reported feud between her and Jillian in an interview with GMA Integrated News. According to Sofia, their conflict started in the first season of their GMA Afternoon Prime series "Prima Donnas," which started airing in 2019. However, she did not say the reason behind the rift. Sofia added that she does not want her and Jillian to have an issue since they are both at the peak of their careers. Following Sofia's remarks, Jillian gave her reaction, saying she does not have time to fight with anyone. She also said that she does not know where the narrative that she and Sofia are fighting came from. Will also confirmed in January this year that he had a rift with Sofia in the past, but they had already resolved it. Per Will, he and Sofia got to talk about their misunderstanding before they started taping "Prinsesa ng City Jail." "Kumbaga isang tinik ang nabunot after how many years. Totoo naman po 'yon kasi parang nagkaroon lang din ng misunderstanding. Kumbaga hindi kami nagkaroon ng chance makapag-usap nang gano'n katagal kasi nga pareho din kaming na-busy," he had said. Will is fresh from his "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition" journey where he and his duo Ralph De Leon finished as second big placer on Big Night. The duo of Mika Salamanca and Brent Manalo were hailed the big winners. —CDC, GMA Integrated News

In Will and Ralph De Leon's GMA Integrated News interview with Nelson Canlas, which aired in "24 Oras" Tuesday, the Sparkle star said he did not know about Dustin having felt jealous of him. "That, I don't know. We had a talk na parang 'yun nga po, na support ko sila, nagiging honest ako dun at sinasabi kong buo na sinusuportahan ko siya," he said. "Masaya ako sa naging storya nilang dalawa at 'yun nga, kagaya ng sinasabi ko sa mga housemates po ay sana talaga madala talaga nila sa labas po." It was in Dustin and Bianca De Vera's guesting in "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda" on July 2 where Dustin admitted that he had felt jealous of Will before. "Nung hindi pa sa'kin clear 'yung ano man 'yung meron sila sa past, 'yung medyo magulo pa, of course, yeah nagselos ako, naguguluhan ako Tito Boy," Dustin told Tito Boy. "Nung nag-usap na kami ni Will and nag-usap na rin kami ni Bianca na wala naman ako dapat pagselosan or intindihin or isipin or i-worry, of course hindi ko na 'yun pinairal, naintindihan ko na 'yun," he added. In the same GMA Integrated News interview on Tuesday night, Will was also asked if he has settled his supposed "triangle" with Dustin and Bianca. "Triangle? Wow, honest, wala pong naging triangle talaga sa loob ng bahay, alam po lahat ng mga housemates 'yan," he said. As to why he and BIanca are being shipped, Will answered, "Siguro po kasi nagkaroon din po kami ng work together." Will and Bianca had worked together in the GMA Network and ABS-CBN collab series "Unbreak My Heart" back in 2023. Following Dustin and Bianca's exit from "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition," Bianca clarified in "Unang Hirit" on July 2 that she and Will are still friends. She also said that she and Dustin are proud of him. Will and his duo Ralph emerged as the second big placer in "PBB," while the duo of Mika Salamanca and Brent Manalo were hailed the big winners. —CDC, GMA Integrated News
