Former Miss Argentina and Miss Puerto Rico stars have revealed they’ve enjoyed their own little fairytale after getting married following a secret romance.
Mariana Varela, 26, who was Miss Argentina, and Fabiola Valentín, 22, who was Miss Puerto Rico, shared a loved-up video, revealing the exciting news that they have tied the knot.
The couple, who originally met when they competed against each other at Miss Grand International 2020, explained that they decided to keep their romance secret, never revealing that they were anything more than friends – but they wanted to let fans in on their big day.
The sweet montage showed the pair sharing loved-up moments, and included a gorgeous snap of the couple’s near-identical engagement rings.
It also features their romantic proposal, which was decorated with rose petals and balloons reading: ‘Marry Me?’, as well as a glimpse at their big day, with Mariana wearing a short white blazer dress, and Fabiola rocking an elegant suit.
They wrote in Spanish: ‘After deciding to keep our relationship private, we opened the doors to them on a special day,’ revealing that they tied the knot in October 28 at the Marriage Bureau in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
