Alyssa Valdez is not returning to Pinoy Big Brother's house.
The volleyball star player gave up slot because she will be busy preparing for the SEA Games on May 12-23, 2022.
On Sunday, May 1, 2022, Big Brother announced that beauty queen Samantha Bernardo will replace Alyssa in the competition.
During the last celebrity eviction night in January, Samantha placed third behind Alyssa and Anji Salvacion, making her eligible to replace Alyssa.
On Monday, May 2, 2022, Alyssa took to Instagram to personally say her goodbyes.
She also recalled her unforgettable moments, and thanked her housemates.
The volleyball player wrote (published as is), “it was really quite an experience being inside the PBB house.
“Got to learn so much from laughing so hard because i plucked ate Brend’s armpit hair to crying because kuya asked as to choose success over family….there’s also rapping, dancing, acting, cooking and a lot more!
“But what i treasure the most is being able to meet people i can call real and close friends. From different fields, it’s all about coming together to create amazing memories inside the house. [heart emoji]
“Maraming salamat, kuya! Salamat PBB. Once a PBB housemate, always a PBB housemate! P.S collab natin kuya soon hehe”
Alyssa also sent her well wishes to Samantha, her sizzy: “To sizzy @samanthabernardo__ we’re all here to support you! Just enjoy and be yourself!
“To Alyfinity, Samly, TeamKiefer, TeamKiefly, Ravena Fam, sa family ko and friends maraming salamat sa walang sawang pagmamahal at supporta! Mahal ko kayo.”
