Angelique Manto, a former UAAP courtside reporter turned lifestyle content creator, is one of the official candidates for Miss Universe Philippines 2023.
On Sunday, the Pampanga-born beauty queen dedicated her MUP candidacy to her younger self, her father, mental health, and her "beloved Pampanga."
"This is for that [seven-year-old] girl bullied into believing that she will never amount to the big dreams she has," she wrote. "This is for you silently struggling and battling to be seen, to be heard, to finally be understood."
