Miss World 2025 crowned amid new exploitation claims
The 72nd Miss World beauty pageant was held this weekend in India and Opal Suchata Chuangsri of Thailand was crowned Miss World. Chuangsri topped a field of 108 contestants in the contest held in India's southern Hyderabad city on Saturday. Hasset Dereje Admassu of Ethiopia was the first runner-up in the competition. Chuangsri received her crown from last year's winner Krystyna Pyszková. Speaking to ANI, Chuangsri said she would love to work in Bollywood if there is an opportunity. Chuangsri said: 'I feel very happy and proud. It is an honour to take the first Miss World crown to Thailand… I hope I have made them proud…If I get the opportunity, I would love to (act in Bollywood films).' Despite the celebrations, controversy has been brewing as Milla Magee, the reigning Miss England, has accused the organisers of the Miss World pageant of using her as window dressing. According to the Guardian, Magee said she agreed to take part in the 2025 Miss World pageant to promote her campaign to have CPR included in the school curriculum. However, she left before the grand final on Saturday, saying she felt she was being exploited, feeling like she and other women had been provided as entertainment for investors. Miss World organisers responded with a statement in which they referred to 'false and defamatory statements' that they said were 'completely unfounded and inconsistent with the reality of her time with us'. Julia Morley, the organisation's chief executive, gavean interview with the Hindu newspaper in which she accused Magee of leaving because she 'believed she didn't stand a chance in the competition'. Magee responded by saying that Morley's comments were 'vindictive and very bitter' and that she left because she 'wanted to stand for what I believe in and it didn't align with my values.' She said: 'I felt like I've been fed a false narrative of this system that promotes 'beauty with a purpose', that's supposed to be about advocacy and what you champion for. And I thought, right, this is a real good opportunity for me on a global stage to be able to talk about Go Far with CPR. This isn't about me standing on the stage, this isn't about what I wear. It's not about what I look like.' Magee claims she and other contestants were there more to entertain guests, with limited opportunity given to promote their causes.

Thailand's Opal Suchata Chuangsri, who won the title of Miss World 2025, has said that grit and determination are the two words she lives by. Soon after her title win in Hyderabad, Telangana, she sat down to speak with the media. She shared the mantras that form the backbone of her professional life, confidence, determination, and compassion. Sharing her formula for success, she told the media, 'Always believe in yourself. Stick to your core values. I'm here today because I held onto my purpose and believed in myself. Also, don't forget to love yourself along the journey.' Final four contestants, Martinique's Aurelie Joachim, Ethiopia's Hasset Dereje Admassu, Poland's Maja Klajda and Thailand's Opal Suchata Chuangsri, pose during the 72nd Miss World finale in Hyderabad. Reuters 'It's not always easy — it can be exhausting and discouraging at times. But if you never give up, you'll eventually get to where you're meant to be,' she added. Opal Suchata Chuangsri was crowned Miss World 2025 in Hyderabad on Saturday. She edged out Hasset Dereje Admassu of Ethiopia in the grand finale as the latter emerged as the runner-up. Opal Suchata Chuangsri walks the ramp in the earlier rounds of the 72nd Miss World finale in Hyderabad. Reuters For the ceremony, Suchata donned a white gown adorned with opal-like florals. The gown symbolised both healing and strength. The event saw the reigning Miss World Krystyna Pyszkova from the Czech Republic pass on her crown to the new titleholder. Chuangsri beat 107 other national winners from around the world. This marks Thailand's first win in the beauty pageant arena. India's hopes to get the coveted title were crushed in early rounds as Nandini Gupta, who represented India, failed to enter the Top 8 finalists. Opal Suchata Chuangsri celebrates with other contestants after being crowned Miss World. Reuters Last year, Krystyna Pyszkova of Czech Republic was declared the 71st Miss World during the ceremony, which was held in India after 28 years. Krystyna beat Yasmina Zaytoun of Lebanon, Ache Abrahams of Trinidad and Tobago, and Lesego Chombo of Botswana to win the coveted title. India has won the title six times with actress Manushi Chhillar being the last winner of the title from India. Meanwhile, Opal Suchata Chuangsri has shared that she plans to visit many temples in India, and the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya is on her list.

I think it's very charming and like I said that we share a lot of cultures and traditions between India and Thailand. So it would be great to visit and to know those places'. India and Thailand share a long history of cultural and commercial relations. Chuangsri also shared her message for the women of Telangana, the state where the Miss World 2025 grand finale was held. She said, 'I would say that first meeting all of the women here in Telangana, India. You all have really inspired me on this journey with all your strength and resilience and the beauty from within all of you. And all the support and caring that I have received from all of the women here in India.' Indo-Asian News Service
