Samantha Lo confirmed to love women, she made her girlfriend public. This is not the first beauty of the Miss Grand International contest belonging to the LGBTQ+ community.
On January 19, on her personal page, Samantha Lo – Miss Grand Philippines 2019 – confirmed that she is a lesbian. She posted a dance video with her girlfriend on the occasion of her lover’s birthday. The two were seen hugging and kissing.
“I know many of you will be wondering following seeing this post, so I’ll answer the question everyone wants to know: Yes, I’m gay. Happy birthday to my little pea, Jannica Rubin “, Samantha notes.
This information surprised the audience, but did not surprise friends and followers of Miss. Because before that, she often shared pictures next to this girl. In an article in early 2022, Samantha told her “friends” to invest in new areas and set up a fitness company.
