The Kapuso primetime star also said that even though the pageant already ended, they still have communication.
"At the same time, sobrang grateful ko na makasama ang ibang kasama kong judges. Napaka-down-to-earth, napaka-humble to the point na naging kaibigan ko sila,” she said.
"So kahit na tapos na ang Miss U, may communication pa rin kami. Nag-uusap-usap pa rin kami," she added.
Marian said that she’s grateful for the experience as she really enjoyed the opportunity.
"Basta yung moment na nandoon ako, masaya ‘ko. Sobrang grateful ako. Yun ang nasa isip ko na ie-enjoy ko kasi baka wala ng second chance, ‘di ba? So lahat ng pagkakataon na nandoon ako, sobrang ine-enjoy ko ang mga sandaling ‘yon," she said.
