Krishnah Gravidez back in Manila after Miss World 2025
Our very own Krishnah Gravidez is back home! The beauty queen had a salubong at Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1 late on Thursday. As seen in a report by Bea Pinlac on "Unang Hirit" on Friday, Krishnah donned an ivory dress with gold details. She also carried a bouquet and waved a small Philippine flag. "I'm just really happy to see everyone here, to be back home, and to share this victory to the entire Philippines," she said in an interview with GMA Integrated News. "This is not only for me, but for all of you, and I would like to maximize this to strengthen and broaden my charity organization, Color the World With Kindness, and all the meaningful causes that I am championing for," she added. According to Miss World Philippines national director Arnold Vegafria, Krishnah will be part of the Miss World tour, although most of her projects will be within Asia. Krishnah ended her Miss World journey with an impressive Top 8 finish and was initially one of the two frontrunners for the continental title, sharing the spotlight with Thailand's Opal Suchata Chuangsri. Opal ultimately clinched the continental award and later won the Miss World crown. With this, Krishnah rightfully assumed the title of Miss World Asia. —Nika Roque/JCB, GMA Integrated News
