"#deepatapos," she wrote, hinting that her pageant journey is far from over.
Dee, daughter of Miss International 1979 Melanie Marquez, won the Miss Universe Philippines crown in 2023.
She represented the country at the 72nd Miss Universe in El Salvador, where Nicaragua's Sheyniss Palacios clinched the coveted crown. The Filipina finished in the Top 10.
Apart from pageantry, Dee has also established a career in entertainment, fashion, and business.
The second MGI All Stars will be held on Dec. 12. Other confirmed Filipino contestants include Miss Eco International 2025 Alexie Mae Brooks and Miss International Queen 2025 top 6 Anne Patricia Lorenzo Diaz.
The first edition crowned Colombian beauty queen Vanessa Pulgarin as the winner. She'll return to defend her title and get the chance to elevate her total winnings to $1 million if she secures victories for three consecutive seasons.
MGI All Stars welcomes women aged 20 to 40 who have previously competed on the international stage as well as moms, transgender women, and married women.
