R’Bonney Gabriel has arrived at her home in New York City where she will fulfill her reign and duties as Miss Universe 2022.
Gabriel, 28, kicked off her media week in the Big Apple with a guest appearance on the popular morning show “Good Morning America.”
“Filipinos are so happy. They are just over the moon about it. It’s a huge win for the community and representation. It’s an honor,” said Gabriel when asked about being part of the Filipino community during an interview on GMA.Gabriel also maintained that she really wanted to increase the age limit a bit in joining Miss Universe.
She added: “I think women, our age is always objectified, and people think sometimes, we’re too old to do things. I had people telling me that I started late in pageantry and I just said my favorite quote ‘if not now then when?’ You should never feel like you’re too late. You should go for it.” Gabriel answered: “For me I would like to see an age increase because I am 28 years old and that is the oldest age you compete. And I think it’s a beautiful thing. My favorite quote is ‘if not now then when?’ Because as a woman, I believe age doesn’t define us. It’s not tomorrow, it’s not yesterday, but it’s now. The time is now that you can go after what you want.”“Absolutely, I’m going to use fashion as a force for good.
