"Mas na-acknowledge ko po kung ano talaga 'yung nararamdaman ko [inside the PBB house] kasi again in the outside world I try to just conceal it kumbaga, siyempre sa dami ng ginagawa kong trabaho," she explained in an interview with Ogie Dia on his YouTube channel.

Ashley described the PBB house as a space that allowed her to embrace her vulnerability. She particularly found comfort in the confession room, where she could express her thoughts freely.

"There is something about that house rin po kasi na talagang mafe-feel mo talaga 'yung humanity at tsaka 'yung tooto mong nararamdaman at tuwing nakakausap ko po si Kuya sa confession room, ang alam ko kasi walang tao. Nakakalimutan ko na ang dami palang nanonood sa akin in the outside world so mas nae-express ko talaga 'yung tunay na nararamdaman ko 'pag alam kong walang tao na nakatingin," she remarked.

She added that the quiet environment inside the house helped her reflect deeply, something she rarely gets to do as a celebrity.

"I got really emotional inside kasi sobrang tahimik lang so I got to reflect on myself. Mas nabigyan ko ng time kung ano ba talaga 'yung nararamdaman ko para sa sarili ko rather than here in the outside world, tulad ng kakalabas ko lang, tuluy-tuloy na 'yung trabaho," she stated. "It's just here in the outside world sobrang fast-pace, sa loob ng Bahay ni Kuya you have the time to sit back, relax and talagang reflect on yourself."

Ashley expressed gratitude for the opportunity to be part of the reality show. "Sobrang grateful po ako kasi dati pinapanood ko lang 'yung PBB tsaka siyempre bilang isang loyal na Kapuso hindi ko po inakala na magco-collab ang PBB sa GMA so isang karangalan po na maging parte ng PBB," she stated.

Since leaving the house, Ashley has been overwhelmed by the support she received from the public. "Paglabas ko sobrang daming suporta at sobrang daming pagmamahal na na-receive ko at hindi po ako makapaniwala and I didn't expect also na 'yung mga stories na shinare ko doon sa loob ng Bahay ni Kuya, naka-inspire pala at naka-relate daw 'yung ibang tao sa akin," she said.
