Days before her departure for the 1992 Miss World pageant, she was replaced by 1992 Binibining Pilipinas-Maja International Marina Pura Abad-Santos Benipayo as Philippine representative due to health reasons. Despite not being able to compete in Miss World, she still retained her title.
In 1999, Janelle Delfin Bautista was crowned Binibining Pilipinas-Universe, but was dethroned because of citizenship issues. Miriam Redito Quiambao, the Binibining Pilipinas-World was asked to assume the title. Lalaine Bognot Edson who was originally crowned Binibining Pilipinas-International was appointed as Binibining Pilipinas-World when original titleholder Miriam Redito Quiambao was officially given the Binibining Pilipinas-Universe crown. Georgina Anne dela Paz Sandico who finished as a semi-finalist in the 1999 pageant was then appointed as Binibining Pilipinas-International upon the designation of original titleholder Lalaine Bognot Edson as Binibining Pilipinas-World
In 2008, Binibining Pilipinas-World Janina San Miguel resigned due to personal reasons and was replaced by First Runner-up Danielle Castaño.
