In a candid and humorous revelation, actress Ashley Ortega recently shared intimate details about her real-life dynamic with best friend Shuvee Etrata, highlighting their contrasting habits as housemates. The disclosure came during Ashley's guest appearance on the popular "Your Honor" podcast, hosted by Chariz Solomon and Buboy Villar, where she painted a vivid picture of their co-living experiences.
From Close Friends to Housemates
Long before they became official housemates on the hit reality show "PBB Celebrity Collab Edition" Season 1, Ashley and Shuvee had already established a deep friendship. This bond was further solidified when they decided to share a condominium unit, embarking on a journey of real-life cohabitation that tested their relationship in unexpected ways.
The Messy Truth Unveiled
During the podcast interview, Ashley did not hold back as she jokingly called out Shuvee for her messy tendencies. "Ako, naglilinis ako. Si Shuvee — love ko si Shuvee — tanggap ko na talaga na burara siya at makalat siyang tao," Ashley confessed with a laugh. She emphasized the sincerity of her statement, adding, "Hindi, totoo talaga! Doon kami nag-aaway." This admission sheds light on the everyday challenges they faced while living together.
Major Fight Over Household Responsibilities
Ashley revealed that their differences in cleanliness once escalated into a major argument over household duties. At that time, they were residing in a three-bedroom condominium unit, which they had creatively utilized: one room for each of them, and the third converted into a spacious walk-in closet. As their careers flourished and their personal belongings accumulated, the clutter became a significant point of contention.
Factors Contributing to the Clutter
In her explanation, Ashley clarified that Shuvee's hectic schedule as a busy professional, combined with the absence of household help, played a crucial role in the messy environment. These factors made it difficult to maintain order, leading to frequent disputes about tidiness and shared responsibilities.
Upgrading to a Bigger Space
To address these growing pains, Ashley and Shuvee eventually decided to move to a larger condominium. This new residence offered them separate floors and significantly more space, which has dramatically improved their co-living situation. Ashley noted that the additional room has made daily life much easier and more harmonious, allowing both friends to enjoy their shared home without the constant stress of clutter.
This story not only highlights the humorous and relatable aspects of celebrity friendships but also underscores the universal challenges of living with others, even among the closest of friends.
