Ashley Ortega bares how she became friends with Shuvee Etrata

July 28 ------ Ashley Ortega was one of the first friends Shuvee Etrata made when she entered showbiz. In Vice Ganda's latest vlog, the former "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition" housemate opened up about her friendship with Shuvee. "Dahil po sa show ko na 'Hearts on Ice, doon ko first time na meet at nakakasama si Shuvee," Ashley shared.

Shuvee played the role of Kring-Kring, one of Ponggay's (Ashley) friends "Hearts on Ice." Aside from Ashley, Shuvee also became close friends with their co-stars Roxie Smith and Skye Chua. "Naging close ako sa kanila ni Roxie kasi lahat kami, we all live alone. Independent. Since tapos na 'yung project, bonding-bonding na. Mas naging close din kami after the show," Ashley said.

Shortly after, Shuvee and Ashley moved into a new home and began living together. Ashley revealed that it was her who offered Shuvee to moved in with her. "Parang I wanted to move na kasi mas gusto ko 'yung mas bago pa. Parang two years na kaming friends ni Shuvee 'non. Tapos s'yempre living alone. Wala rin kasi akong family na kasama. Parang, nahirapan kami. Pati siya, parang that's why we relate to one another," she said.

When asked why Shuvee got to trust Ashley easily, the Sparkle star answered: "Bago ko po kasi siya maging kaibigan, nandun 'yung respeto ko sa kanya bilang artista." She also expressed how grateful she is that she was able to find her core friends in Manila. "Naahanap ko agad 'yung core ko, which is them," Shuvee said.
