Winning three titles over the span of three months, this is truly a full-circle moment for the tenacious Boholana-Belgian.
Last May, Pauline was crowned Miss Supranational Philippines 2023 after placing in the Top 5 of Miss Universe Philippines 2023. As a three-time repeater at the national competition, this finally gave her the opportunity to represent the country internationally.

Flying to Poland in July for Miss Supranational, Pauline finished as first runner-up. With her flawless performance, the Philippines found its way back to the Top 5 after decade-long wait.
In bearing her newest title, Pauline will be utilizing her reign to promote the country’s rich culture and heritage.
Owned by Empire Philippines, the same organization that holds the Miss Universe Philippines franchise, The Miss Philippines seeks to select the country’s representative for both Miss Supranational and Miss Charm.
Along with Pauline, fellow Top 5 finalist Krishnah Gravidez is crowned as Miss Charm Philippines 2024. She will be competing at Miss Charm next year in Vietnam.
The Miss Philippines is presently accepting applications and holding screenings this month in preparation for its October debut.
