Megan Young, who is now in India for her hosting stint at the 71st Miss World pageant, was delighted to be able to bond with her fellow queens prior to the coronation night.
Through an Instagram post on Thursday, March 7, reigning queen Karolina Bielawska gave a glimpse of the pageant titleholders’ reunion that included Young (2013), Mireia Lalaguna (2015), Stephanie Del Valle Diaz (2016), Vanessa Ponce de Leon (2018) and Toni-Ann Singh (2019).
“Who’s gonna join the Miss World sisterhood in two days?” Bielawska captioned her post.
Young, in the comments section, then exclaimed, “Yays to mornings with you ladies!”

In a separate post, Young showed herself preparing for the pageant rehearsals, donning the same dress from the Miss World queens’ reunion.
Young, the lone Miss World winner from the Philippines to date, will share the Miss World hosting chores with Indian celebrity Karan Johar. Young also hosted the pageant’s 2014 edition, and was one of the presenters as well in the 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 editions of the global tilt.
This year’s Miss World competition includes 112 delegates, with Gwendolyne Fourniol as the Philippines’ representative. The finals night will be held at the Jio World Convention Center in Mumbai, India, at 10:30 p.m. (Philippine time).
The current edition is being held two years after the most recent competition staged in 2022 in Puerto Rico, where Bielawska emerged as the winner.
