Samantha Bernardo believed that her fans were her true “crown”
SAMANTHA BERNARDO — The beauty queen-turned-reality star believed that her fans were her true “crown”.
Samantha finally realized why she always ended up being a runner-up in pageants.
On Monday, Samantha thanked her supporters for supporting her in her “Pinoy Big Brother” journey, where she finished in the Top 5. According to her, she wouldn’t have made it that far, whether in PBB or in any other competition, without people’s support.
“Gusto ko lang iparating ang aking taos-pusong pasasalamat sa lahat ng ‘di bumitaw at lumaban para sa akin habang nasa loob ako [ng Bahay ni Kuya],” she said. “Kahit sabi ko nga, ‘forever runner-up ako,’ I am proud to say na kayo ang totoong korona ko.“
She went on to declare that she’ll never forget her fans, as well as those who helped her achieve her dreams.

Known as “Bread-Queener ng Palawan” in the celebrity edition of “Pinoy Big Brother: Kumunity Season 10“, Samantha said that she fearlessly showed her true self and faced challenges with pride, whether on stage or inside PBB house.
“Sa aking mga kapwa housemates at sa lahat ng mga ‘di ko nabanggit at ‘di pa kilala na tahimik na sumusuporta at nagmamahal, maraming salamat po sa inyo, Pilipinas!” Samantha said. “Nawa’y marami rin po kayong natutunan kagaya ko.“
Samantha finished as a 1st runner-up in the Miss Grand International 2020 pageant, which was held early last year, before joining the celebrity edition of “Pinoy Big Brother”.
Prior to this, Samantha placed as a runner-up in the 2018 and 2019 editions of the Binibining Pilipinas (BBP) national pageant.
It was last January 10 when she announced on Instagram that she has tested positive for coronavirus disease (COVID-19) through the RT-PCR test.
At that time, she shared that she’s “feeling weak”, had a cold, but was still able to taste and smell. Samantha promised her supporters that she would be taking care of herself and “hopefully recover faster”.
