Her reign may be over, but Pia Wurtzbach still feels like it was only yesterday when she had her winning moment.

On Instagram, the former Miss Universe titleholder posted a throwback selfie, her first when she was crowned the winner of the pageant at the Axis Theater in Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, Nevada, back in December 2015.

Wearing the coveted crown in her custom-made Albert Andrada gown, she wrote that it was a “dream come true” for her to be crowned the most beautiful in the universe.

Even Miss USA 2015 Olivia Jordan, who shared an apartment with Wurtzbach during their respective reigns, said she was lucky to win the crown.

But one netizen, @nicholasnivek, asked Jordan, “What is your issue with Ariadna?” referring to Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez who was mistakenly crowned when host Steve Harvey read the wrong name of the winner.

In her “no hate” reply, Jordan asked what issue she brought up, and complimented Wurtzbach for being the “most incredible roommate.” She said she was only celebrating her luck by sharing her part of her Miss USA journey with her.
