Binibining Pilipinas Grand International Roberta Tamondong wasn't able to take home the Miss Grand International crown but she continues to gain fans and supporters.
Among them is former Miss Universe Catriona Gray.
Catriona insists Roberta did so well during the coronation night held on October 25 in Indonesia.
She believes Roberta deserved more despite her Top 20 finish.
She made her sentiments felt and publicly so.
In a social media page dedicated to pageantry, Catriona wrote, "She deserved so much better, performed sooo well. I'm so proud."
Roberta was touched.
She was quick to reply to the post, writing, "awww, thank you ate Cat!"
