After her reunion in Paris with her mother, Iris reunited with her grandmother in Lille. On Instagram, the beauty queen posted a nice shot of her hugging her beloved grandmother whom she nicknamed Mamé affectionately.
In an interview with TV Mag , Iris Mittenaere explained why she was so upset when she found her grandmother. "I had not seen her since I left for Manila. I was extremely moved to see her again. She did not want me to win because I was going to be away from her. She was too cute!" So it was a relief for her grandmother who was able to see her granddaughter who had promised to visit her regularly .
