Celeste Cortesi Considers Herself ‘Very Lucky’ To Have ‘Supportive’ Boyfriend Mathew Custodio
CELESTE CORTESI – Miss Universe Philippines 2022 Celeste Cortesi said her boyfriend Mathew Custodio helped her overcome a “very difficult time” after her Miss Universe journey.
Following a previous article, Celeste Cortesi spoke about her Miss Universe 2022 journey. In an interview with King of Talk Boy Abunda on Thursday, Feb. 23, she reflected on her time in the prestigious pageant saying that she assumed hard effort would be enough to capture the crown.
Despite coming short of winning the title, Celeste stated that she is proud since she knows she and her team gave it their all. It can be recalled that the Fil-Italian beauty queen did not make it into the top 16 of the aforementioned pageant, which disappointed many Filipinos and pageant fans because it was the first time the Philippines did not make it into the top 16 since 2010.
Celeste Cortesi had nothing but praise for her boyfriend Mathew Custodio, whom she credits with helping her endure a “very difficult moment” following her Miss Universe stint. Also during her interview, she expressed gratitude to her family, friends, and Mathew Custodio, who never left her side throughout the competition and afterward.
“Of course I went through a very difficult time, the weeks to follow, but I know in my heart that the respect, the love and support that I gained from the Filipino fans is really more valuable than the Miss Universe crown.”
“And I really, really know that ginawa ko ang lahat para sa bansa,” she added.

Celeste Cortesi then discussed her relationship with Mathew Custodio, whom she admired for providing the support she required at the time. “Matthew was very supportive. He came with me to the US… and he was there all the way,” she said.
“I think what’s really beautiful about our relationship is the fact that we give each other space and understanding. We really understand each other’s needs and he knew that Miss Universe was very important to me,” said Celeste.
Mathew, according to the beauty queen, is always able to make her feel his presence and support in all she undertakes. Celeste acknowledged that they still argue about “stupid things,” but they know their limits and always choose to communicate with one another.
“I feel very lucky because sobrang supportive [niya] (he’s very supportive)… He understands what I need; he understands what’s really important to me… I was just very lucky to find a guy that was as supportive as him.”
“Of course, sometimes there are misunderstandings, but we always talk about it. I think that communication is very important in a relationship and that’s what we have, and that’s why we lasted for so long,” Celeste continued.
