Rabiya Mateo was emotional after the National Costume competition

She also thanked those who were cheering and expressed support for her. The beauty queen from Iloilo City also said that tomorrow will be the preliminary competitions for the swimsuit and long gown. That is the next event that will keep her busy but she decided to do a quick live to apologize.
“I’m so sorry, kung na disappoint man kayo sa akin but I know, I did my best,” Rabiya Mateo said.
Several netizens who commented on this post of Twitter user @WinpeeKid showed support and cheered the Philippines’ representative.
A netizen even shared this Instagram Story from Neat Obsessions, the one that packed the wardrobe of Pinay beauty queen for the Miss Universe 2020 competition. Two men carried the wings but Rabiya Mateo carried that weight with grace and glamour on her own.
