The countdown is on! The reigning Miss Universe, Victoria Kjaer Theilvig, is set to grace Ecuador this July to crown the next national beauty queen at the Miss Universe Ecuador 2025 pageant. This marks a significant moment for the contestants and fans of pageantry, fashion, and global glamor.
Victoria Kjaer Theilvig made headlines in 2024 when she became the first-ever Miss Universe from Denmark. At 22 years old, this model and business graduate from Søborg has already broken records and shattered expectations. With her degree in Business and Marketing and real-world experience in the jewelry industry, Victoria is the total package.
But beyond the tiara and runway lights, she’s also deeply committed to youth empowerment, primarily through sports. Her work in community-based leadership programs proves that she’s more than a symbol, making her upcoming role in Ecuador even more meaningful.
Now, she’ll bring that same spirit of purpose and passion to the Miss Universe Ecuador 2025 stage, where she’ll personally crown her successor and inspire a new generation of hopefuls.
