A news article from ABS-CBN News said that in Saturday's episode of the reality show, Christian and Ralph of the team Du Brothers and Patrizha and Cathy of team Showbiz Royalties confessed that they brought cigarettes, junk food and slimming tea inside the camp to help them lose extra pounds.
Even before the program looked into the case, the other contestants apparently already had a hunch about the Du Brothers and Showbiz Royalties' deceitful practices, but chose to remain mum for the sake of camaraderie, as well as lack of evidence against the four contestants.
Siblings Ikya and Brian admitted they were offended and hurt by what Christian, Ralph, Cathy and Pat did, but said they will still be their friends outside the competition.
Ikya said:
"Sobrang bigat kase na magpanggap. Akala mo okay ka na. 'Yung feeling na nandu'n pa rin, 'yung nadaya ka. Sobrang tinuring mo silang pamilya, kaibigan, tapos magagawa nila sa 'yo 'yun. Pero after nitong journey natin ituturing ko pa rin silang kaibigan,"
Meanwhile, the other contestants also shared the same sentiments and are willing to forgive what the Du Brothers and Showbiz Royalties did for the sake of their friendship.
With the Du Brothers and Showbiz Royalties out, a batch of contestants are set to make a return to the "Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition Doubles."
Pat is the eldest of 4 siblings of actors William Martinez and Yayo Aguila while Cathy is the daughter of Gigi dela Riva and producer, Marlon Bautista, eldest brother of Sen. Bong Revilla.
