A few days before we officially enter the month of June, also famously known as Pride Month, Miss Universe Philippines 2023 and Mga Lihim ni Urduja star Michelle Dee surprised her fans and supporters as she unveils in an exclusive interview with lifestyle magazine MEGA Entertainment that she identifies as a bisexual.

According to the American Psychological Association (APA), a person who identifies as bisexual is sexually, emotionally, or romantically attracted to more than one gender. Michelle confirmed, “I definitely identify myself as bisexual. I've identified with that for as long as I can remember. I'm attracted to all forms of beauty, all shapes and sizes.”

After being crowned as the new Miss Universe Philippines, a lot of different stories about Michelle and her sexuality surfaced online. But as the empowered woman that she is, she controlled her own narrative and came out in her own time.

In her caption for the post, she shared, “I hope this cover and my story not only empowers you to be authentic to who you are but to also be a champion of the people who are also taking the steps to be as true as they can be to themselves. Let's not let labels and stereotypes define and control us or the people around us.”

“Rather, let's allow these misconceptions and biases to push and inspire us to own our narrative and become the unstoppable force we all are deep inside,” she further says.
