Did Ahtisa Manalo just introduce her boyfriend to the online world?
Note that Miss International 2018 first-runner up recently shared a cozy picture of her along with a man named Marco Suarez.
"my bf is like so pretty," she captioned.
Many netizens assumed that Ahtisa just confirmed her relationship. But some reiterated that "bf" may not mean "boyfriend" but "best friend."
Note that of late Ahtisa's name has been making headlines.
Many beauty pageant aficionados hope for Ahtisa's comeback via the upcoming Miss Universe Philippines.
Recall that the 24-year-old model was supposed to compete last year but later backed out due to health reasons.
“I need to take care of my health and I hope everyone will be understanding of it. I was hoping that I'll be able to join this year; but after considering the opinion of everyone important in my life, we decided it'd be best for me not to push through," she said then.
A big fan of crime-busting television series “Charlie’s Angels,” Ahtisa said in a previous interview that she wanted to become a police officer when she was young but her parents did not approve of it.
Instead, she earned a degree in accountancy from the Manuel S. Enverga University in Candelaria, Quezon. In 2016, she was crowned Binibining Niyogyugan.
