Bianca is now currently in a relationship with Lino Baker Cayetano, a pop-film director and the son of the late senator Renato Cayetano. However, her friendship with fellow housemate Zanjoe Marudo sparked controversies that led Lino to file a leave from ABS-CBN to go to France. Marudo immediately apologized to Cayetano concerning the issue.
