BB vs PE dilemma

Recently got offer at top BB for SA 23/24. However, I recently got referred to a relatively prominent PE shop in my country for a part time internship, I have a chat next week with the exec chair. They’re looking to hire for an ongoing position, intern -> full time after grad. Should I mention my BB offer? Ideally I would work there until commencement of my SA to get some experience. My concern is that they may prefer other candidates without an SA offer.
