Pinoy Big Brother Collab 3.0: Meet the Kapuso Housemates to Watch Out For! - GMA Network

The iconic house marks an all-new start as Pinoy Big Brother 3.0 opened its doors to 16 new housemates on October 24. Leading the Kapuso banner on the hosting front, Kapuso It Girl ni Kuya Gabbi Garcia returned as one of the main hosts, while Sparkle's rising star Michael Sager joined the lineup as Kapuso Wonder Boy ni Kuya on PBB Onlineverse.

As the brand-new season kicks off, get to know the eight Kapuso housemates who are all ready to make their mark.

First on the list is the TDH (tall, dark, handsome) Sparkle artist and LA-raised model Anthony Constantino, who was introduced as the “Total Dream Heartthrob ng USA.” Celebrated for his prince-charming looks and gentlemanly demeanor, he had already modeled for prestigious brands like Louis Vuitton and Francis Libiran, starred in Huwag Kang Titingin and From Vlog to Love, and won over fans through his public courtship with Sparkle artist and former PBB housemate Shuvee Etrata.

Dubbed as “Ang Overseas Factory Senpai ng Cavite,” Bela Arcal had started her journey as a local mall sales clerk before migrating to work as a factory worker in Japan in pursuit of a better life. She is another Kapuso housemate to watch out for, bringing her fighting spirit and strong personality to the house.

Strengthening the Kapuso presence, Filipino-Pakistani model-actor Raheel Bhyria, who was revealed as “Ang Brusko Boksingero ng Las Piñas,” was first introduced through Sparkada's 2022 batch. An amateur boxer and actively involved in several sports, he had made his TV debut in Luv Is: Caught in His Arms and Zero Kilometers Away, followed by breakout roles in Abot-Kamay na Pangarap, Mga Batang Riles, and Kamao.

Known as “Ang Pretty Dependable Ate ng Bohol,” Nicole Fortuna is under Status by Sparkle. Before joining the house, the Filipina-British morena beauty had built an impressive online following on TikTok through her island lifestyle, beauty, fashion, and travel content shared alongside her family and dogs in Bohol.

Introduced as “Ang Archi-tista ng Manila,” Sparkle actress-singer Mikee Quintos joined the Kapuso housemates. Best known for her award-winning role as Lira in Encantadia (2016) and starring roles in Onanay, The Gift, The Lost Recipe, and Apoy Sa Dugo, the 2025 UST architecture graduate and recording artist behind "Awit Ni Lira," "Panaginip," "Tadhana," and "Just Enough" had long charmed viewers with her raw, real personality.

Entering as “Ang Reyna Mama ng Parañaque,” Winwyn Marquez surprised viewers as she appeared to be a new housemate. The showbiz royalty daughter of Joey Marquez and Alma Moreno and Sparkle artist had made history as the first Filipina to win Reina Hispanoamericana in 2017 before placing 1st runner-up at Miss Universe Philippines 2025. Winwyn has been in the industry for a long time and showcased her acting skills in Mulawin vs Ravena, Nelia, Never Say Die, and Mommy Dearest, all while serving as a Philippine Navy Reserve Cadet since 2020 and being a mother to her 4-year-old daughter, Luna.

First seen as the "Morenong Beach Boy" in Sparkle Campus Cuties, Ethan Benares was introduced to viewers as “Sporty Palangga ng Bacolod” in honor of his Negros Occidental roots. A La Sallian Psychology student-athlete with a team-player mindset, he had also cultivated a deep passion for camping and water sports prior to his entrance.

Completing the Kapuso lineup is the 24-year-old Lans Nagal, who was named as “Ang VetMed Content Creator ng Cavite.” Introduced with a massive social media following of around 10 million on all platforms, her accessible educational TikTok videos on science and animal behavior—such as viral hits on roosters and stray dogs—had even earned a stamp of approval from TV host Kuya Kim Atienza.
