It was a tight race against two-time winner Sam Pinto. But in the last few days of the voting period, Sam started to pull away making the final votes 890,490 for Marian and 778,681 for Sam. Marian joins the list of women who have won the title twice. She is the fourth actually following Katrina Halili, Angel Locsin and Sam Pinto. Her win also marks the second time an FHM Babe reclaimed the title five years after winning her first. The first one to do this was Angel Locsin who first won in 2005 and reclaimed the title in 2010.
Via her official Instagram account, Marian thanked her fans: “Taos puso akong nag papasalamat sa lahat ng sumuporta at bumoto sa akin… alay ko ito sa inyo. Pa hug nga ng mahigpit sa inyo… muah GOD Bless. #happiness http://instagram.com/p/bDtDHnRCMb/”
