Former beauty queen gets pregnant at 43

Miriam Quiambao, who is 43 years old, has revealed that she is expecting a baby. On Sunday, the former beauty queen posted a photo on Instagram of her ultrasound examination in July.

“Praise God who is the author of miracles and the creator of life! By His grace, He rewarded our faith with the greatest gift: a baby conceived naturally!” said Quiambao in her post.

Thanking God for the miracle of life and for answering our prayers. Ardy @ardyroberto and I have been praying to get pregnant for the past 4 years. In June 2018, we were resigned that perhaps God will answer our prayers through the miracle of adoption or through IVF but Praise God who is the author of miracles and the creator of life! By His grace, He rewarded our faith with the greatest gift: a baby conceived naturally!!! ?? There is more to this story and will be sharing it in my blog soon! Watch out for it! . Thank you to all who prayed for us and do keep us in your prayers for a safe and healthy pregnancy! May God bless you and answer your prayers too! #GodAnswersPrayers #PregnantAt43 #MiracleBaby #9WeeksPregnant

Quiambao remarried in 2014 to a Christian motivational speaker named Roberto “Ardy” Roberto.

She admitted that they have considered an IVF (in vitro fertilization) conception but they decided to keep praying to have a child.

Hubby @ardyroberto and I went on a short trip to Cebu yesterday for a business meeting and back in the evening. We had a not-so-great start in the morning upon learning that our 9:40am flight got cancelled ? and we had to take a later trip at 1:30pm… filled up the space in between working from our laptops… but we ended the day with a great exchange of ideas interspersed with fun-filled laughter on our flight back to Manila. ? . I am so blessed to have a husband who is not only my partner in life and my ministry partner but also my travel and business partner as well — a partner in every way. I highly recommend that we pray for our future/present partners. God really wants the best for us and he will grant the desires of our hearts if it’s His will and best for us. To God be the glory! #MyGodsBest #PartnerInLife #HoneymoonersForever
