#OnThisDay December 17, 2018, Miss Philippines Catriona Gray, 24 years old, was crowned Miss Universe 2018 at the beauty pageant held at IMPACT Arena, Muang Thong Thani in Nonthaburi Province, north of Bangkok, Thailand.

Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters of South Africa crowned her successor Catriona Gray of the Philippines at the end of the event. This is the fourth time that the Philippines has won Miss Universe [1st Gloria Diaz – 1969; 2nd Margarita Moran – 1973; 3rd Pia Wurtzbach – 2015] beating 94 other contestants from all around the world.

During the Q&A portion, she was asked, “What is the most important lesson you’ve learned in your life and how would you apply it to your time as Miss Universe?”

Her answer: “I work a lot in the slums of Tondo, Manila and the life there is poor and it's very sad. And I’ve always taught myself to look for the beauty in it; to look in the beauty in the faces of the children and to be grateful. And I will bring this aspect as a Miss Universe, to see situations with a silver lining. And to assess where I could give something; where I could provide something as a spokesperson. And this I think if I could teach also people to be grateful, we could have an amazing world where negativity could not grow and prosper, and children will have a smile on their faces. Thank you.”
