Tensions and observations are simmering inside the Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) house as Kapamilya housemates recently opened up about their perceptions of their Kapuso counterparts’ relationships.

During a discussion, Kapamilya housemate AC Bonifacio didn’t hold back, sharing her thoughts on the apparent lack of camaraderie among the Kapuso contingent.

“I’m gonna be real, feeling ko iba ‘yung closeness natin kesa sa kanila,” AC remarked.
“Kasi sila, when I heard their stories, it’s always ‘hindi nga tayo nagpapansinan sa ano eh, (no) hi’s, hindi nga tayo nagbebeso eh.’ So, ah, so hindi sila close!” Her observation stemmed from stories shared by the Kapuso housemates themselves, who admitted that some of them don’t even exchange greetings at work.
Fellow Kapamilya housemate Kira Balinger chimed in with a possible explanation: “Baka kasi siguro hindi pa sila nagkaka-work.” She suggested that the Kapuso housemates’ lack of closeness might be due to not having collaborated on projects together—a detail the Kapuso contingent had mentioned during their introductions to the group and viewers.
AC nodded in agreement, pointing out that ABS-CBN artists frequently cross paths at the network’s building, giving them more opportunities to bond.
The conversation has sparked a buzz beyond the PBB house, with social media lighting up as fans weigh in. Many viewers echoed the Kapamilya housemates’ sentiments, noting that while there was initial hope for unity among Sparkle Artists—the Kapuso contingent—recent events suggest otherwise.
Observers have pointed to signs of strain within the Kapuso ranks, with some fans suggesting that Kapuso stars are forming stronger connections with their Kapamilya peers instead. A recent incident involving housemate Charlie Fleming has further highlighted the volatility within the Kapuso lineup, adding fuel to the discussion.
While AC’s comments may have been intended as a harmless observation, some fans worry it could deepen the divide between the two groups.
Si AC daming sinasabi. Parang sya mag uumpisa ng away hahaha

With nomination week looming in few weeks ahead, speculation is rife that her remarks might not sit well with everyone, potentially putting her at risk when nomination votes are cast. Social media reactions remain mixed—some see her candor as refreshing, while others fear it could backfire.
ano context nito? baka kasi ma-misunderstood si ac kahit harmless observation naman.

This season’s unique format guarantees that one housemate from each contingent—Kapamilya and Kapuso—will emerge as a Big Winner. However, with fissures appearing in what was assumed to be solid alliances, the dynamics inside the house remain unpredictable.
As stakes rise and loyalties shift, this latest PBB season is shaping up to be a monumental clash of personalities and networks. Fans are eagerly watching to see how these early observations will play out in the weeks ahead.
