LOS ANGELES: Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez, who was wrongly crowned the 2015 Miss Universe for just a couple of minutes, says the incident was written in her destiny.

Gutierrez shared a touching message on Instagram on December 22 in which she congratulated Miss Philippines Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach for winning the Miss Universe title, reports aceshowbiz.com.

“After the storm comes the calm,” Gutierrez, 21, wrote alongside a photograph of her putting her hands to create a heart symbol.

“I want to thank each and everyone of you who have sent messages of support and strength. Every one of you has become an incredible human being in my book and I am the most fortunate and thankful for having the support not only from one country but from the whole entire world. Your destiny is written for you. And my destiny was this,” she added. — IANS
