Binibining Pilipinas Charities Inc. (BPCI) Chair Stella Marquez-Araneta has expressed her optimism that Annabelle McDonnell will bring home The Miss Globe 2025 crown.
In a message posted on the pageant’s social media pages, the matriarch said, ‘your entire Binibining Pilipinas family is cheering you on with pride and excitement as you compete in Albania.’
McDonnell is in Tirana, Albania, for The Miss Globe 2025, where she hopes to post the Philippines’ third victory in the pageant’s current iteration under Deliart Association.
‘You’ve been impressing us all with your grace, determination, and charm, and we know you’ll carry that same fire all the way to The Miss Globe finals. Mabuhay and Vaya con Dios!’ Araneta said.
McDonnell has advanced to the final round of the Talent Competition and the ‘Head-to-Head Challenge,’ and will still need online votes from the public to help her secure a guaranteed spot in the semifinals.
In sharing Araneta’s message, Bb. Pilipinas wrote this caption: ‘Your Binibining Pilipinas family is bursting with pride as you shine brighter than ever on your journey to The Miss Globe crown.

Reigning The Miss Globe Diana Moreno told Inqurer Entertainment in an interview that she hopes to crown a successor who is powerful, humble, beautiful ‘inside-out,’ and will use the crown to inspire other people.
‘The Miss Globe pageant is looking for an empowered woman, a leader, at the same time humble. Because if you’re a queen you need to be humble to persons around the world. And this is very important,’ she said.
The Miss Globe 2025 pageant’s coronation night will be held in Tirana, Albania, on Wednesday evening, Oct. 15 (early morning on the 16th in Manila). Fans may watch it on the pageant’s official YouTube channel.
