Sa Facebook idinaan ni Bea Rose, 28, ang kanyang confession at kasabay nito ay ipinagdiinan niyang “sexual harassment is real not just in pageants but everywhere.”

Pag-amin niya: “I was molested when I was a child by a priest. He is still preaching somewhere in Masbate;

'Sexy pero classy!' Janine Gutierrez, calendar girl na rin

“I was told ‘why are you born too late! or sus sayang ka Bea, kong napanganak ka lang mas maaga’ by a pageant guy winner. I was 12 years old and he was 21;

“I was once touched inappropriately by a well known businessman. This guy is a well known CEO of a big company (companies pa nga e) he even organized parties for girls who didn’t win with his friends.”

“The next time I met him, I was a candidate and the organizers were there. He couldn’t interact with us because the chairwoman was present and so were the chaperones. Still he was talking nonsense to us.”

“We were at the Congress or Senate when a Queen was touched (in her behind) while taking a photo. She immediately told me (with a help me look) so I put my hand covering her back protecting her from the old well known perv.’

“We just won an international pageant but still I was working when I posed with a middle aged man (I had a feeling he was a perv) so I put both my hands behind me. He still managed to ‘accidentally swing her hand touching my behind;’

“It happens. No matter how careful you are. No matter how big/popular/old/ ‘religious’ a person is. He can still be a pervert. I still feel guilty for not speaking up and file complaints or slap the hell out of them. I guess speaking up now will help the future Queens. I am honestly really scared to speak up. I hope I won’t regret this,” ang mahabang pagbubunyag ni Bea Rose.
