After the Binibining Pilipinas coronation night yesterday, Wyn Marquez went home without a crown but with a full heart.

 

She won three special awards and was one of the crowd favorites.

 

After the results were announced, netizens expressed dismay over the Kapuso talent not bagging any of the five crowns. Filipina beauty queen Ruffa Gutierrez shared their sentiment through her Tweet.

 

“I’m sooooo sorry but Teresita Marquez should’ve been one of the winners too! Did you see her flawless answer?? Beauty & brains!” she wrote.

Wyn, meanwhile, took the results gracefully, true to the disposition of a real winner.

 

“Binigay ko lahat ng makakaya ko… at least napatunayan ko sa sarili ko at sa lahat na kaya ko. Sobrang worth it lahat ng pagod at sacrifices na ginawa ko. Sa lahat ng sinasabi niyo sa akin ngayon, feeling ko winner pa din ako,” she said through a statement on her Twitter account.

 

Overwhelmed, she thanked everyone who tirelessly cheered for her and supported her throughout her entire Binibining Pilipinas journey.

 

“Nakakataba ng puso… Parang binigyan niyo na din ako ng korona sa suporta niyo. WINWIN situation padin toh kahit natalo ako,” she added.

 

All things considered, she sees herself as a winner of an experience and thirty three new friends.

 

“May mga bago akong sisters, mas nakilala ko sarili ko at mas nagkaroon ako ng confidence sa sarili ko… SALAMAT SOBRA SALAMAT… Sa winners, congratulations sa inyo!! I love you girls!” she wrote.
