Brent Manalo and Mika Salamanca, collectively known as BreKa, have made history by winning the Big Winner title of Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition. They are the first Kapuso-Kapamilya duo to achieve this in the show's special season.
The tandem achieved victory with 33.03 percent of the total public votes, finishing ahead of three other finalist duos. Each duo will receive a ₱1 million cash prize.
“Hindi po sapat ang mga salitang ‘masaya,’ ‘mahal ko kayo,’ at ‘salamat po’ para ipaliwanag ang nararamdaman ko ngayon. Lahat po ng ito ay para sa inyo—para sa pamilya ko, sa mga nagmamahal, at para sa amin ni Brent,” said Kapuso Big Winner Mika.
Kapamilya Big Winner Brent added, “Gusto ko lang pong sabihin na kapag puso ang panlaban, anything is possible. God is good!”
After BreKa, the duo of Ralph de Leon and Will Ashley, known as RaWi, was recognized as the Second Big Placer Duo, earning 25.88 percent of the votes. Each member received P500,000. 
Following them in third place were Charlie Flemming and Esnyr Ranollo, known as CharEs, who secured 22.91 percent of the votes and earned P300,000 each. Finally, AZ Martinez and River Joseph, referred to as AZVer, finished in fourth place with 8.77 percent, receiving P200,000 each.

Launched in celebration of Pinoy Big Brother’s 20th anniversary, this season introduced an updated format focused on duos and cross-network collaboration.
The Big Night was hosted by Bianca Gonzalez, Gabbi Garcia, Robi Domingo, Kim Chiu, Melai Cantiveros, Enchong Dee, Alexa Ilacad, and Mavy Legaspi.
