Personal life

edit

Seron grew up in Cebu, Philippines. Despite their financial issues, her parents decided to move her to an expensive private school close to their home to minimize her walking distance. Big Brother offered to pay the remainder of her tuition so she could graduate high school. Devon was chosen among thousands of other contestants from different regions of the country to enter the PBB house. On week 6, her mother joined her inside the house disguised as a house player in return of her college scholarship funds.[1]

Devon is very much engaged in her showbiz commitments while managing her school work to finish her degree in Business Management.[2]
