“As I’ve said before debating and stating your own opinion is okay but let’s not retaliate with negativity. Secondly, to those who are saying that I need to control the fans, pasensya na po, but I cannot control them or tell what to and to not say.”
In the last Instagram Story, Catriona continued:
“Finally, let’s just be happy! I’m elated and over the moon to be our new Ms. Univese Philippines! We should be celebrating the new queens! More love, more positivity.”
