Rhian Ramos goes through the full scale of emotions watching Michelle Dee in Miss Universe 2023 coronation

Like most Filipinos on Sunday morning, Rhian Ramos tuned in to watch the Miss Universe 2023 coronation event.

Unlike most Filipinos, Rhian went through the whole gamut of emotions as she watched and supported her "wifey" Michelle Dee.

She cried seeing her friend enter the stage wearing the Apo Whang-Od inspired black evening gown. Rhian was next seen jumping up and down in excitement as she waited for Michelle's name to get called into the next ground.

And then finally, you could see Rhian melting with pride as she watched the Kapuso beauty queen strut the stage.

"My face when you came out in the gown. You're perfect, Michelle," she said tagging the Philippine bet.

"It's absolutely breathaking," she added tagging the fashion designer Mark Bumgarner.

Ahead of the coronation, Rhian has been drumming up support for her bestie and housemate ever since she became Miss Universe Philippines 2023. When Michelle came out as bisexual, Rhian was first to voice out support and remind Michelle that "we love who you are."

When Michelle left for El Salvador, Rhian even packed a cup of instant noodles in Michelle's luggage, knowing the beauty queen will crave for a taste of home while in a foreign land. This show of support at the coronation was nothing short of expected for the two good friends.

Rhian was at a Miss Universe watch party alongside their barkada Max Collins and Janina Manipol.   

Michelle finished the Miss Universe 2023 in the Top 10, collecting three special awards and winning the hearts of pageant fans everywhere.

She made waves for her knockout evening gown made by Mark Bumgarner, who said "they wanted to show the world how vibrant our culture is, and I think we did."
