R'Bonney Gabriel is embracing her Filipino roots!
On Instagram, the Miss Universe 2022 shared photos from a day she spent at her family's home in Malate, Manila.
In the photos, the beauty queen could be seen wearing a denim tube top and a black skirt while carrying a dog. She also shared the Filipino spread on their dining table, which included dishes like kare-kare, buttered shrimp, and a platter of mangoes and bananas.
"Sundays in Barangay 743," R'Bonney said in the caption.
R'Bonney, the first Filipino-American Miss Universe, has been exploring her heritage in the Philippines, from eating Pinoy street food, practicing her "tawad" game in Divisoria, and riding a jeepney.
The beauty queen was among the hosts of the Miss Universe Philippines 2024 coronation night, where Chelsea Manalo of Bulacan was crowned as Michelle Dee's successor.
