South African model Tshego Gaelae has made history as the first Black woman to win the Mrs World pageant held in Las Vegas, USA.
Sri Lanka’s Ishadi Amanda was
named first runner-up, while Thailand’s Ploy Panperm secured the second
runner-up position.
Gaelae celebrated her victory in an emotional Instagram post on Friday,
writing: “To God be the glory. Thank you so much for the love and support, I am beyond grateful and elated! My beautiful South Africa, the crown is coming Home.”Mrs World, established in 1984, is
the first international beauty pageant exclusively for married women.
The Mrs
South Africa organisation, which supported Gaelae’s
journey, also celebrated her success, stating: “From
Soweto, to Vegas and now the World, @mrsworldpageant The Crown is Coming Home!
Thank you to everyone who supported our Queen on her incredible Journey. Thank
you to the @mrsworldpageant Organisation and Judges for everything you do, and
for Seeing our Queen and her brilliance. What an honour to have a South African
Queen as the 40th Anniversary Mrs World, and first ever Black Mrs World.”
Gaelae’s win comes amid rising
competition between South Africa and Nigeria in the beauty pageant world.
In 2024, Miss Universe Nigeria,
Chidimma Adetshina, made history as the first Nigerian and West African to
finish as the first runner-up at Miss Universe 2024 in Mexico City.
Adetshina, who also won the Miss
Universe Africa and Oceania title, faced controversy over her South African
citizenship, leading to her withdrawal from Miss South Africa before eventually
winning Miss Universe Nigeria 2024.
