MANILA – For the first time, Pia Wurtzbach spoke of her new romance following her breakup with race car driver Marlon Stockinger.

“I’ve never talked about this before,” the Miss Universe 2015 titleholder admitted in an interview with Mega Magazine, where she appears as a March 2020 cover girl.

She went on to describe how she feels in her new relationship: “I’m happy, I’m inspired, I feel very empowered. I feel like I can be myself and I don’t have to water myself down. I can be my full self.”

“I can be my full Pia, 100% empowered Pia, fight mode all the time; I can be the alpha that I am, all the time. I don’t have to filter myself for anyone anymore.”

Wurtzbach did not give further details – not even the name of the person she is currently dating.

But for the past months, she has been linked with Jeremy Jauncey, the globetrotting founder and CEO of the creative agency Beautiful Destinations.

The two have been sharing snaps from the same spots in New York and Indonesia, as noticed by their respective fans.
