Franki will represent New Zealand in the Miss Cosmo 2024 pageant after being appointed by the organization.

This comes after Franki was dethroned as Miss Universe New Zealand 2024 because of her previous work and films with Viva and the former management House of Yugen canceled its franchise.

Meanwhile, Ahtisa was crowned Miss Cosmo Philippines 2024 in May.

During the pageant’s preliminary activities, the Quezon Province native won the “First Station” of Miss Cosmo’s People’s Choice Award.

The Miss Cosmo 2024, which is currently being held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, kicked off on September 15 with a sashing ceremony and runs until October 5.
