December 27, 2015 9:59 PM
28 Dec - Former Miss Universe hopeful, Germany's Sarah-Lorraine Riek recently denied any issue with Philippines' representative and the recently-crowned Miss Universe, Pia Wurtzbach.
As reported on PEP News, previously, the pageant queen was heavily criticised by others when she was filmed telling Missosology correspondent, Natalia Cruz in an interview that she was unhappy about the result.
"I really couldn't believe it. I was so upset. For me, Miss France is the real winner. I was very happy for Colombia and I think she really deserves it. But I'm really not happy with the result and so are the other girls. I'm sorry to say it," she said.
She later posted an apology on Facebook, although it was not received with much satisfaction by Wurtzbach's fans.
On 27 December, Riek posted another message on Instagram about the issue, saying that there are no issues between her and the new Miss Universe.
"Especially to the passionate fans from the Philippines, I love your country - I was there with my mom in 2013 to help in medical care after Haiyan and I made a lot of friends there.
"I want Pia to have the fans and support she deserves and I want all our Queens to get the LOVE they deserve. Each and every one of them deserves respect and support, no matter what media is trying to tell you about who they are."
Riek also claimed that she was unwittingly used by irresponsible parties, i.e. the media, to create bad publicity, saying, "Sadly there is a business behind it, a billion dollar business that only works with the right attention, the right scandals to make a lot of money. They don't care for 81 beautiful souls that just follow their dream, making friends for a lifetime."
