Furthermore, Vincent reveals having her heart in the Philippines as the reason behind her declining the offer.
“My heart is, and always will be here to serve the Philippines. Some may say I’m not Filipina enough, and that’s ok. I know who I am. I know what I stand for, [and] I am a Filipina.”
She concluded her post by thanking Miss Universe New Zealand for the opportunity.
Also, she expressed gratitude for Miss Universe Philippines and excitement for what the future holds.
