From one Manalo to another. Quezon Province's Ahtisa Manalo is Miss Universe Philippines 2025. Congratulations!
The pageant is over and the country now has a new Miss Universe Philippines - Quezon Province representative Ahtisa Manalo.
Ahtisa Manalo won thanks to her response to the question “they say that a good leader leads by example, tell us about one event in your life when you lend by example and the impact it made.”
Ahtisa's response was “I fell a while ago at stage and the thing with me is whenever I fall in life, I always make sure I come back stronger. Last year, I was here on this stage and for the second time this year, I'm here putting everything on this stage to be Miss Universe Philippines, because this is mine and my grandmother's shared dream and she passed away early this year.”
