After Miss Charm, Annabelle McDonnell wants to represent the Philippines on the international stage once more. 

She is part of this year's batch of Bb. Pilipinas bets under Aces and Queens, as seen in a photo shared by the beauty queen camp on Thursday.

McDonnell gained a following among local fans after placing first runner-up in Miss Universe Philippines 2022. This gave her the opportunity to compete in the inaugural Miss Charm in Vietnam the following year.

She placed first runner-up, with Luma Russo of Brazil winning the crown.

As of last year, Bb. Pilipinas sends delegates to Miss International and Miss Globe. 

In previous editions, it picked the country's representatives to Miss Universe, Miss World, and Miss Grand International, among others.
