Ayon kay Pauline, nakita niya sa naturang beauty pageant kung paanong ibinigay ng lahat ang kanilang puso para sa nire-represent nilang bansa.
“I too, saw Andrea’s dedication and passion to be her best for Equador.
“This journey has taught me that even when we didnt achieve what we set our minds to, we could have still achieved so many other things, things we didnt expect or prayed for but which still hold so much meaning and value if we allow ourselves to see that 🙏🏼,” kuwento ni Pauline.
“I have found pride and peace in the collective effort that has brought the Philippines into the Supra Top 2,” saad pa niya.
Samantala, inihayag din ng Miss Supranational first runner-up na nalaman niya ang lahat ng masasakit na mensaheng natanggap umano ni Andrea matapos manalo sa nasabing beauty pageant.
“I know very well how it feels like to receive PMs or even emails with hurtful messages. But no one deserves to go through that,” pagbibigay-diin ni Pauline.
“Thats why I want to speak up about this. I will never tell you how to act or how to feel, but i can only hope that we always chose to be kind and not add to the hate already present in our world. To make life even more beautiful is up to us ✨.”
“I still believe that pageantry is a platform that brings people together, and its by uniting that we can make the greatest change,” saad pa niya.
Matatandaang Hulyo 14 nang maganap ang Miss Supranational 2023 sa bansang Poland.
