Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach lamented on false reports over the media about her love life.
Reigning Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach resorted to social media to express that she was disappointed over false media reports, according to her, about her love life.
On Tuesday, ABS-CBN evening newscast reported about speculations of a blossoming affair between Wurtzbach and Filipino car racing champion Marlon Stockinger after she posted a photo of them together on Instagram with the caption “Marloner.”
The photo was uploaded on Instagram on September 23 where she was with Stockinger.
The photo of Wurtzbach and the car racing champion has gone viral online, as netizens smell a brewing romance between the two.
The photo of Wurtzbach and Stockinger earned more than 99,000 likes within just three days.
The 25-year-old Marlon is a multi-awarded Fil-Swiss race car driver who recently finished 11th out of 55 competitors on the ring at the BlancPain GT series in Italy.
On Wednesday, Wurtzbach wrote on Twitter, “News on TV Patrol about me last night [was] false. Wonder [where] they got their sources from. Anyway, back to regular programming!” After this, she has deleted the tweet.“I wonder why the media won’t feature our recent trip to UNICEF instead. Yesterday was national gay men’s HIV AIDS awareness day,” she added.
Citing the statement from Wurtzbach’s camp, the TV Patrol report said the two were just “good friends” and that the beauty queen was still dating celebrity and Russian Doctor Mikhail Varshavski or known as Dr. Mike, considered the “Sexiest Doctor Alive,” showing the photo of her and the doctor.
Wurtzbach, in the previous days was in the country where she celebrated her 27th birthday.
Using her social media accounts, Wurtzbach also urged everyone “regardless of (their) age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or gender identity” to get tested for HIV and break the stigma.

She celebrated her birthday by attending endorsement events and spending quality time with friends.
Pia also answered 27 questions for the Miss U app and got surprised with a birthday cupcake.
