Miss Argentina and Miss Puerto Rico have announced they tied the knot in secret after claiming they've been in a 'private' relationship for two years.

Mariana Varela, 26, from Argentina, and Fabiola Valentín, 22, from Puerto Rico, first met in 2020 when they represented their counties in the Miss Grand International competition.

Before sharing their surprise news on Instagram, the newlyweds - who never confirmed they were dating - only ever gushed about their 'friendship' on social media.

Announcing that they'd tied the knot, both models shared the same Reel with their combined Instagram following of 233,000.

In the 30-second video, the couple began by sharing snippets from their travels - including a clip of them cuddling up on Jobos beach in Puerto Rico and enjoying a romantic boat ride in Mexico.
