Myrna Esguerra is in high spirits following her Miss International stint.
In a “Balitanghali” report, the beauty queen thanked the Philippines for all the love and support.
“Mga kababayan, we made it to Top 5. Maraming maraming salamat po for your support. Kung wala po kayo, wala rin ako dito ngayon,” Myrna said.
The beauty queen also thanked Filipinos for the bayanihan and said she appreciates their messages of support.
“I hope I made you happy with our placement,” she said.
“I can’t wait to go home,” she added.
Myrna was named 4th runner-up in Miss International, whereas Catalina Duque Abreu of Colombia is Miss International 2025.
Myrna had a strong showing in the swimsuit and evening gown portions. In the swimsuit round, she wore a blue one-piece swimsuit with a transparent drape over her shoulders, showing confidence on the runway.
In the evening gown, the beauty queen from Abra wore an off-white Mak Tumang gown called "Orienta Rosa." Draped around her arms is a pink stole inspired by Palawan's cherry blossoms, which also doubles as a tribute to the pageant's Sakura Crown.
In the preliminary rounds, Myrna dazzled in a yellow halter gown adorned with delicate beadwork and a Solihiya-inspired woven pattern, a stunning creation by Filipino fashion designer Rich Sabinian.
She also showed off her confidence and elegance as she donned a white one-piece swimsuit, gracefully showing off her pasarela during the swimsuit round.
Last week, she shared that her national costume is inspired by the sampaguita. — Nika Roque/LA, GMA Integrated News
