New York ∙ Mothers and married women can now compete for the World Beauty title. Until now, only single and childless people between the ages of 18 and 28 were allowed to participate in the competition. Also, there is a requirement that you should not be married or pregnant during the period of winning the Miss Universe title.
The organizers have announced that from next year’s competition for the 72nd Vishwasundaripatta, married couples will also be able to participate. The organizers stated that the change in terms is in the belief that personal decisions should not be a hindrance to success.
Mexican Andrea Mesa, who won the World Beauty title in 2020, said that she is very happy with the new decision. Mesa said that in this period of women reaching leadership positions, it is time to open the beauty page to mothers. After winning the beauty pageant, Mesa denied that she was married in social media.
