Pia Wurtzbach and Marlon Stockinger
Filipino-Swiss car racing champion Marlon Stockinger has confirmed that he and reigning Miss Universe Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach are “seeing each other.”
Stockinger confirmed the news to ABS-CBN’s entertainment site Push during the 10th Star Magic Ball on Saturday evening, saying they want to keep their relationship “down low.”
“The truth? Let’s put it this way if Pia was here tonight she’d be my date here so yeah obviously we see each other but we just want to keep it down low pretty much but yeah, I’ve been seeing Pia,” Stockinger was quoted as saying in the report.
“It’s amazing! Pia is very beautiful of course, that is the reason why she is Miss Universe. I just feel lucky that we got to meet and we’ve been seeing each other,” he said.
Rumors of a budding affair between Wurtzbach and Stockinger first surfaced after the beauty queen posted a photo of them together in New York. The two earlier denied that they were dating.
