Alethea Ambrosio
A simple send-off for Miss Supranational Philippines 2024 Alethea Ambrosio was held at Empire Studios in Estancia on Monday.
Ambrosio, winner of the inaugural The Miss Philippines pageant in 2023, was brimming with excitement as she looked forward to representing the country in Miss Supranational 2024, to be held in Nowy Sącz, Lesser Poland, Poland on July 6.
“It will be my first time in Europe and I’m very excited to have the opportunity to learn more about the culture of other nations,” said Ambrosio, an Economics student at De La Salle University.
Brandon Espiritu, a 29-year-old Guam-based model, entrepreneur, and licensed fitness professional, will represent the Philippines in the 8th Mister Supranational 2024, also in Nowy Sacz.
Will Ambrosio surpass the first runner-up finish of Pauline Amelinckx in Miss Supranational 2023, and will Espiritu become the first Filipino to win Mister Supranational?
