In 2018, she competed for to represent Puerto Rico in the Miss Universe competition where finished in the top 5. She left a heartfelt message to her followers.....

“Culminó otra etapa maravillosa en mi vida. Un proceso donde crecí como mujer en todos los aspectos. Me quedo con las hermosas experiencias y el calor de un pueblo que creyó en mi. En un escenario tan importante, ante una pregunta bastante controversial, quizás los nervios me traicionaron. Sin embargo, esto no quita la mujer que soy y quien vino a dejar su huella. Dejé en ese escenario y en toda la competencia lo mejor de mí. Estoy orgullosa del trabajo desempeñado. Me proyecté tal como soy y disfruté al máximo este proceso."

“Obviamente” jajaja, gracias a todos ustedes quienes me apoyaron y saben lo mucho que me sacrifique para llegar al top 5. ¡LOS QUIERO! Y esto no será lo último que vean de Yuanilie Alvarado.”

Another wonderful stage in my life culminated. A process where I grew up as a woman in all aspects. I am left with the beautiful experiences and the warmth of a people that believed in me. In such an important scenario, faced with a rather controversial question, perhaps my nerves betrayed me. However, this does not take away the woman who I am and who came to make her mark. I left on that stage and throughout the competition the best of me. I am proud of the work I have done. I projected myself as I am and I enjoyed this process to the fullest. Obviously, hahaha, thanks to all of you who supported me and know how much I sacrificed to get to the top. I LOVE YOU! And this won't be the last they see of Yuanilie Alvarado.
