Pere, last night told Maria he likes her and has feelings for her.
However, Maria turned him down saying she does not like him.
Pere, speaking to Angel and Sammie on Tuesday, said he wants to have more than friendship with Maria.
He revealed that he is physically attracted to Maria because of how witty, playful and intelligent she is.
Pere said: “There’s this connection and vibe I have for Maria
“I’m not interested in platonic friendship with Maria but it’s not by force if she doesn’t want it
“I didn’t plan to have a relationship when I got here but when you’re in someone’s face 24 hours a week it’s different.
“I’m physically attracted to Maria, love most of her personality and the way she thinks. Maria is witty, intelligent and a playful person.
“She understood my humor when we first got into the house.”
Sammie advised Pere to be optimistic and hope for the best.
