MANILA, Philippines — Philippine candidate Kelly Day was named first runner up in the coronation night of Miss Eco International held in Egypt on Sunday (early Monday morning in Manila).

The beauty queen came in second after South Africa’s Gizzelle Mandy Uys who bagged the title.

“Congratulations for our winners of Miss Eco International. Our new queen is Gizzelle Mandy Uys and first runner up Kelly Day from Philippines. Second runner up is Alexandria Kelly from USA. Congratulations all,” read a Facebook post from the pageant’s management.

Earlier at the preliminaries, Day also won the Best National Costume award.

Day, a former member of “It’s Showtime” dance group GirlTrends, won the Miss Eco Philippines title during the Miss World Philippines 2019 pageant.

She was supposed to compete in the 2020 Miss Eco International contest slated in March 2020 in Egypt but this was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
