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

Bianca Umali pens heartfelt letter after becoming crowd favorite among PBB fans
Bianca Umali's stay as celebrity house guest in "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition" may be short, but it was enough to capture the hearts of the viewers who grew fond of her. On Instagram, the Sparkle star shared a photo of her younger self along with a heartfelt message for the PBB fans who showed her love during and after her stint. "Hello po sa inyong lahat. Hindi ko po alam kung saan at paano po magsisimula. Sobra sobra po itong ipinaparamdam ninyo sa akin and I couldn't stop crying. Pang ilang araw na po na sumasabog ang puso ko with gratitude," Bianca wrote. "Maraming salamat po sa inyo. This is the most that I have ever felt love in my life from the outside world," she added. According to Bianca, having been an orphan most of her life, she believed the only love she would ever have, truly deserve, and never lose was from her Lola Vicky—a love that made her feel content and whole. "But now? Oh wow. As I was praying… God gave me the answer. This is what love is. This is a version of the love I thought I would never have… this is the love of my Mommy and my Daddy being showered upon me through all of you and words aren't even enough to express the state I am experiencing. This is surreal. I am over the moon," Bianca said. She also thanked the viewers for giving their time to listen to their story, and said that she never thought that it is possible to feel a love that is beyond measure. "Ka mahal mahal po pala ako ng ganito ka sobra. I never knew I could be loved this much! Ngayon, I have learned na - hindi na ako magisa at lalong hindi na ako dapat matakot sa mga tao at sa mundo. Alam ko na po ito dahil po sa inyo," the Kapuso star said. "Ama, taos-puso po akong nagpasasalamat sa inyo para po sa biyayang mga pangyayari na ito! Kahit kailan ay hindi po ako humiling… at sobra sobra pa po ang binibigay ninyo!" Bianca added. Ending her post, the "Sang'gre" star expressed her love for all the kind praises she received from the netizens. "From the bottom of my heart, mahal na mahal ko din po kayong lahat! If only I could hug each and every one of you ng mahigpit! Ayun lang po okay Iyak lang po ako ulit wait lang po." Previously, Bianca said that she entered PBB because of her late mom May, who was a big fan of the reality show. While inside Bahay ni Kuya, she went viral for cleaning the house. Kuya also gave her a name tag of her mom with his signature at the back. After her PBB stint, Bianca is set to star in "Sang'gre," which will air on GMA Prime beginning on June 16. —Jade Veronique Yap/MGP, GMA Integrated News

Meanwhile for Faith, she's giving her all out effort in dancing as sharing the dance floor with amazing dancers in the country is such a privilege. "'Yung stage presence ko is there. Atsaka sinisipagan ko talaga ng matindi kasi it's such a privilege to be sharing a stage kasama ang mga naghuhusayang dancer dito sa Pilipinas," she said. Meanwhile for Zeus and Dasuri, "Stars on the Floor" is a big challenge for them as they will be performing in front of a big audience and to try new genres of dancing. "We just show our skills sa world through our phone. Ngayon kasi ang daming camera sa harap namin atsaka, ang laki ng stage 360 [degrees]. As in grabe, walang take two kaya super grabe ang pressure," Dasuri said. "'Yung mga genre na ibinibigay sa amin ay hindi kami familiar. Kumbaga ako hiphop, may mga jazz o paso-doble. Kaya andon 'yung mga photographer na talagang inaalalayan kami. And siyempre challenge 'ito sa amin kasi sobrang nahihirapan kaming lahat kahit hindi talaga siya madali," Zeus added. "Stars on the Floor" is hosted by Alden Richards with Marian Rivera, Pokwang and SB19 choreographer Coach Jay serving as the judges. "Stars on the Floor" will begin airing on GMA Network on June 28. —Jade Veronique Yap/MGP, GMA Integrated News
