She told how they were used to entertain wealthy male 'sponsors' at posh dinners in Hyderabad as a 'thank you' for the money they pumped into the show.
Milla said she was made to feel 'like a prostitute'.
Miss World organiser Julia Morley launched a savage attack on Milla and even released videos of her at the hotel which appear to show her enjoying the experience.
Ms Morley said Milla told bosses she had 'a family emergency involving her mother's health' and that they treated her with 'compassion' and arranged her return to England.
MIlla said yesterday: 'My mum has had a recent health problem, but I said what I needed to say to get out of there.
'I was feeling vulnerable after the appalling way we had been treated and I just needed to go home, I couldn't stay in a contest that did not appear to me to be morally right.
'I'm shocked that MIss World have released videos of me at the hotel without my permission, they give an entirely false impression.
'In that situation we had to do what we were told and if someone points a camera in your face and tells you to smile then you are going to do it.
'But the reality was that I was miserable and could not stay to support the Miss World organisation.
'I felt exploited at having to talk to these dignitaries at dinners and one of the contest's officials clapped in my face after telling me and the other girls we were boring.
Milla Magee the first plus size winner of Miss England
'That's just not an acceptable way to treat people.'
She said her walk-out has drawn support from around the world, including former beauty queens.
Milla, of Newquay, Cornwall, said: 'Other past contestants have been in touch to say they felt the same way when they were in Miss World.
'It's an outdated organisation that just hasn't moved with the times.'
Milla's mum Kat Russell was furious to see Miss World claim they helped Milla get home.
She said: 'Milla was put in a taxi at 3am and left to find her own way back. I organised the flights for her and paid the £600 air fare. She got no help at all from Miss World.'
A Miss World spokesperson said Milla's claims were 'completely unfounded and inconsistent with the reality of her time with us'.
The spokesperson added: 'Earlier this month Milla Magee requested to leave the competition due to a reported family emergency involving her mother's health.
As a mother and grandmother herself, Julia Morley, Chairman of Miss World, responded to Milla's situation with compassion and immediately arranged her return to England, placing the well-being of the contestant and her family first.'

Star of hit 70s TV show looks very different as she makes rare appearance – can you tell who it is?
It comes as she spoke out on playing her 'dull' role double take Star of hit 70s TV show looks very different as she makes rare appearance – can you tell who it is? Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A SEVENTIES TV star looked completely unrecognizable as she stepped out to run errands in Los Angeles. The iconic small screen actress dressed down in red shorts, a black logo top and sandals as she enjoyed a day in the sunshine.

Susan Olsen, famed for her role in The Brady Bunch, was seen clutching her car keys as she exited her white SUV. The 63-year-old juggled a bunch of papers under her left arm as she made her way around town. Her very different look to her Brady Bunch role - which saw her playing youngest Brady child Cindy - came after her former co-star Maureen McCormick also left fans doing a double take with her look. Susan and Maureen, as well as Mike Lookinland, Eve Plumb, Christopher Knight and Barry Williams starred as the siblings in the US sitcom from 1969 to 1974 and then reunited for the reboot. Santa Monica born Susan - who was aged seven when she was cast in her plum TV role - was often seen on-screen with her blonde locks tied into to pig tails for her five years on the series. SUSAN'S TAKE Susan has previously spoken out about her tendency to play "dull" roles in her career. She previously said: "That's just how my career was and it was something I had to accept." The Brady Bunch was a massive hit for five years from 1969 She also opened up to the Real Brady Bros podcast about a scary incident on set. It saw the child star hit with a piece of equipment while she was having her make-up done prior to the show's pilot episode. She said of the aftermath: "My eyes were black. "I mean, I had two black eyes. My nose was swollen. My face was swollen." She added: "The saddest news is that we didn't sue Paramount, because I would have made more off of that than the show.' Meanwhile, her former Brady Bunch co-star Maureen has opened up on the prospect of a series reboot. Maureen recently told People: "It's so hard to do a reboot or a remake of something. "So I feel very protective of it in a way. It has such great memories for so many people, but it would just have to absolutely knock my socks off for me to want to do anything with it. I would know in my heart. "But it was such an incredible show to be a part of, and my best memories of the show are the people, the crew, and their families." OTHER PROJECTS Susan also appeared on Space Ghost Coast To Coast, Blending Christmas, The Young And The Restless and Gimmie My Reality Show to name a few. Film-wise, she featured in 2009 flick Zombo and in 2015, in Mamam Claus, Deck The Halls With Guts. Away from TV, she has been the spokesperson for the Sindy doll and also for migraine sufferers. 6 The Santa Monica born star played the youngest Brady child Credit: Paramount 6 Susan, 63, has spoken out about being typecast for 'dull' roles Credit: Getty

Bombshell book claims Jeffrey Epstein called Prince Andrew a serial sex addict and said he was kinkier than himself
The explosive claims come alongside fresh allegations about Andrew's conduct on royal tours 'SEX OBSESSED DUKE' Bombshell book claims Jeffrey Epstein called Prince Andrew a serial sex addict and said he was kinkier than himself Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PRINCE Andrew has been branded a 'serial sex addict' in a bombshell new book — with Jeffrey Epstein reportedly claiming the Duke of York was even kinkier than him. The shocking allegations appear in 'Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York', which the disgraced royal reportedly tried to block.

'From the reports I've got back from the women we've shared, he's the most perverted animal in the bedroom. 'He likes to engage in stuff that's even kinky to me – and I'm the king of kink!' The explosive revelations come alongside fresh allegations about Andrew's conduct on royal tours. A Reuters correspondent reported that, during the King of Thailand's diamond jubilee celebrations in 2006, more than 40 women were taken to Andrew's Bangkok hotel room. 'Often, as soon as one left, another would arrive,' the reporter said. Hotel staff were reportedly stunned that 'more than 10 a day' were going to the Duke's suite. The exposé portrays the 64-year-old royal as a man consumed by sex, with claims from an investigative journalist that he has bedded over a thousand women, ranging from porn stars and actresses to palace staff and bartenders. Prince Andrew has never been more toxic - the public hate him and NONE of the royals back him either One 20-year-old model, who says she twice slept with Andrew before being whisked to Mustique, recalled: 'He wanted me to engage in kinky sexual activity. 'He had no boundaries. He told me he had an open marriage arrangement with his wife. 'After returning to London, I never heard from him again. I felt like he used me for a few days, so he could live his wildest fantasies.' Masseuse Emma Gruenbaum, who worked on him at Royal Lodge, alleged Andrew was a 'constant sex pest,' insisting on being naked for massages and making crude remarks. 'That's just not normal behaviour for a professional sports therapy session," she said. The book also recounts disturbing tales from palace insiders. One former staff member claimed: 'When I started, I was warned to stay away from him. 'He would sometimes enter the staff quarters. 'It seemed everyone was aware of his behaviour, but little was done about it.' From his 'Randy Andy' schoolboy reputation to being accused of bullying aides and humiliating women at society events, Andrew is painted as both sex-obsessed and arrogant. Aides alleged he once had an employee moved because of a mole on his face, while another was sidelined for wearing a nylon tie. 9 Disgraced paedophile Epstein died in prison in 2019 Credit: Splash 9 Prince Andrew with bikini girls as he holidayed on the French Riviera in 2002 Credit: The Mega Agency 9 The Duke of York on holiday in Sardinia in 2010 Credit: MCP 9 The Duke meeting with Thailand's Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra (left) in 2006 Credit: Shutterstock Editorial The York family reportedly tried to block the book, warning contacts not to cooperate and enlisting the Foreign Office to discourage diplomats from speaking. Despite legal threats, the exposé has gone to print — leaving Andrew once again at the centre of a storm of sleaze and scandal. It comes as a top lawyer warned that Andrew may not be in the clear despite the FBI dropping its probe into his ties with Jeffrey Epstein. Spencer Kuvin, who has represented five of Epstein's alleged victims, said the Duke of York, 65, still has reason to worry after six years of avoiding travel abroad for fear of arrest. 'I still don't think Andrew can sleep soundly,' Mr Kuvin said. 'With the quick change of administration or new leadership at the Department of Justice, the investigation could be reopened or continued. 'Andrew needs to visit the US to answer questions from the FBI. Avoiding this merely makes people think he's guilty.' Andrew has always denied claims by Virginia Giuffre that he abused her when she was 17, insisting he never saw or suspected Epstein's crimes. Giuffre died in Australia in April at the age of 41. There is no statute of limitations for federal sex crimes in the US, meaning allegations could be revived at any time. Andrew has not set foot in America since meeting Epstein in New York in 2010.
