MANILA, Philippines — Bea Millan-Windroski has received support from her former pageant director in the United States following her victory in the national competition, according to a social media post.
Laura Clark, national director of Miss Earth USA, said Windroski showed strong potential when she first joined her pageant program in the United States. Clark said Windroski previously competed as Miss Wisconsin Earth before advancing to international pageants.
Clark said Windroski later competed in the Miss Earth 2024, where she won the Miss Earth-Water elemental title. She said Windroski represented her heritage and maintained consistent performance across competitions.
Windroski recently won Miss Universe Philippines 2026 after competing against 49 other candidates, earning the right to represent the Philippines in the Miss Universe 2026, which will take place in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Clark said Windroski has competed in pageants for multiple years and has held several titles since her early participation in the United States. She said Windroski previously held the Miss Wisconsin Earth title in 2023 before entering international competition.
Windroski is expected to compete for the Miss Universe crown in the upcoming international pageant cycle.
