AZ Martinez is hoping that she could get to know Ralph De Leon more now that they’re back in the “outside world.”
AZ was asked about the real nature of their relationship.
“We’re really good friends, and we haven’t had much time to catch up yet because we’re enjoying time with our families, but we did meet earlier. We started catching up,” AZ said.
“I hope to get to know him more here in the outside world,” she added.
During the Big Night, AZ said that she was “shocked” and “overwhelmed” by the sight of LED signs from fans, something she had only dreamed of with her duo partner, River Joseph.
“That was just a dream for me and River. I used to tell him, ‘I wish I had LED lights, you know? Like those with ‘AZ’ in colorful LED lights.’ And then I saw it, I really saw it,” AZ shared.
Fans have been pairing AZ with Ralph due to their chemistry and frequent moments together inside the PBB house.
They started as the RAZ duo, and their closeness led to frequent teasing. Both later denied having romantic feelings, but their interactions, especially when drunk, kept fans hoping for a relationship.
After leaving PBB, the two took their first photo together outside the house, exciting their fans.
They also delighted fans with their first dance together, joining the “Lasik” trend song.
In an interview, Ralph stated that he and AZ are “just friends” for now.
