The Philippines will be represented at Miss Earth 2026 by Rina Andrea de los Santos, 26. It is the 26th edition of the international beauty pageant based in the country.

De los Santos hails from Ballesteros, Cagayan, Philippines. From December 2018 to January 2022, she attended Far Eastern University in Sampaloc, Manila, Metro Manila, Philippines.

On March 21, 2026, de los Santos turned 26. On May 8, 2026, she stated, “From the shores that shaped my roots to the hearts that raised me, I carry with me not just a place, but a purpose. Join me on this journey as I stand for love in action — where compassion moves, where purpose speaks, and where every step becomes a promise for our Earth.”

On November 5, 2025, Natálie Puškinová of the Czech Republic won Miss Earth 2025 at the Okada Manila in Parañaque, Metro Manila. She competed against 77 other candidates including Joy Barcoma of the Philippines, who finished in the Top 8.

On June 27, 2026, Puškinová served as a judge at Miss Philippines Earth 2026 at the Cultural Center of Malitbog, Bukidnon, Philippines. She also crowned the winner instead of Barcoma, who was not present during the coronation ceremony.
