Parts of the “Pinoy Big Brother” (PBB) house were flooded as a result of the heavy rains brought by Typhoon Carina.

In the video shared by MJ Felipe on X (formerly Twitter), floodwaters entered some areas of the house in Quezon City, including the bedroom of the male housemates and the garden area.

The program’s Business Unit Head, Alex Asuncion, said in an interview with the network that the flood fortunately did not reach any higher and the housemates and staff were far from being in danger.

“Hindi naman tumaas pa yung tubig. Managed na. Ligtas naman at malayo sa peligro ang housemates and staff na nasa Bahay ni Kuya ngayon,” he said. 

(The water did not rise. It was already managed. The housemates and staff in Big Brother’s House are safe and away from danger.)

The unit head affirmed that their thoughts and prayers are with those who are badly affected by the damage caused by Typhoon Carina.

Meanwhile, actress-turned-politician Aiko Melendez shared that she and her family experienced the flooding brought by Typhoon Carina that swept away the car of her son.

Internet personality Ninong Ry also shared glimpses of his flooded home in Malabon and affirmed that he tried his “best to stay positive” despite being submerged in floodwaters.

Kapamilya actor Gerald Anderson likewise received online praise after he was spotted extending help to a family in Quezon City that was stranded in the flood.

Other celebrities who shared their experience during the typhoon were Rosanna Roces and Michael de Mesa, among others.

The strong rains flooded Metro Manila and neighboring regions on Wednesday, July 24.
