[edit] Personal information
She studied in Dar Al-Hekma College in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Wilson is an aspiring actress and is part of the GMA-7 series Asian Treasures, and was also seen in Encantadia and Kakabakaba Adventures, her first show. Her other interests include art, history and rock music. She said she hopes to make her mark in the Asian modeling scene, before eventually trying her luck in Europe.[2]
[edit] Career
After her crowning as Bb. Pilipinas World 2007, one columnist allegedly questioned her qualifications for not being a high school graduate, which is one of the requirements for joining the pageant. A former Binibining Pilipinas-World titleholder and Miss World 1993 Finalist, Ruffa Gutierrez, defended Wilson in a television interview, saying that the latter was chosen because she is tall, stunningly pretty and smart.[3]
Incidentally, Wilson shares the same name as Miss Tanzania in Miss International 2005, Margareth Wilson, as well as the Speaker of the House of Representatives in New Zealand, Margeret Wilson.
She participated in the 57th Miss World pageant in Sanya, China in December 2007 but was unplaced.
