"15 days to go until we crown a new phenomenal woman who will represent our country this December. Who’s your bet???" she wrote.

In October 2019, Rabiya Mateo was crowned Miss Universe Philippines and represented the country at the international Miss Universe pageant in Florida last May.

Although the crown went to Mexico's Andrea Meza, Rabiya made the nation proud as she landed on the pageant's Top 21 candidates.

Rabiya is set to crown her successor in the upcoming grand coronation night to be held this Sept. 25. —Kaela Malig/JCB, GMA News
