MANILA, Philippines – “Binigay ko lahat ng makakaya ko.”

Thus said Teresita Ssen Marquez—known in showbiz as Winwyn Marquez—hours after the Binibining Pilipinas 2015 pageant on Sunday.

Winwyn was an early favorite to win the Bb. Pilipinas 2015 pageant. However, despite winning a couple of special awards during the grand coronation night, she failed to clinch any of the five titles. The top prize went to Pia Wurztbach, who won the Miss Universe Philippines title.

On her Twitter account on Monday, Winwyn said she did her best and still considers herself to be in a “winwin situation.”

“Nakakataba ng puso..parang binigyan niyo na din ako ng korona sa supporta niyo WINWIN situation padin toh kahit natalo ako,” she added.

Winwyn further said, “May mga bago akong sisters, mas nakilala ko sarili ko at mas nag karoon ako mg confidence sa sarili ko. SALAMAT SOBRA SALAMAT.”

She also posted a photo of her parents Almo Moreno and Joey Marquez, along with half siblings Vandolph and Jeremy Marquez on her Instagram account.

It was accompanied by a caption that read, “And this is why I still feel like a winner.. They taught me to be the woman I am today. napakasaya ko padin kahit wala ako crown na napatunayan ko na kaya ko! na kaya ko tumayo sa sarili ko at gumawa ng pangalan para sa sarili ko. salamat sa lahat ng sumuporta saakin..i will still reach out and continue to insipire other people sabi ko nga i'll try to make a difference dito saatin and maybe sana sa ibang bansa one dance step at time.”

In previous interviews, Winwyn admitted it was her long-time dream to join a beauty pageant.

In an interview with Philstar.com last January, Winwyn said: “I’ve always been very vocal about it. Lagi kong sinasabi na gusto kong sumali. Yun talaga yung gusto kong gawin.”

She also said, ““It’s just really a risk… If you really want something, you will take a risk. And I took a risk for that.”
