Miss England exits Miss World; Org denies harassment claims
HYDERABAD [Maha Media]: he Miss World Organisation has released unedited footage of Miss England, Milla Magee, to address allegations made by the British press regarding her experience in India during the ongoing Miss World 2025 pageant in Telangana.
Milla Magee, the reigning Miss England 2024, announced her decision to withdraw from the Miss World 2025 competition, citing personal and ethical concerns. In a statement shared with British tabloid The Sun, Magee spoke about her disappointment with the pageant’s environment, stating it did not reflect her values of “beauty with a purpose”.
Magee said a significant turning point in her decision occurred when, according to news reports, contestants were allegedly asked to socialise with middle-aged men as a gesture of gratitude for their financial support of the event. The Sun reported her as saying, “Tipping point came when they (contestants) were allegedly asked to socialise with middle-aged men as a gesture of appreciation for their financial contributions to the event.”
Julia Morley, chairperson and CEO of the Miss World Organisation, quickly responded to the allegations, calling them “completely unfounded and inconsistent” with the reality of the situation. The organisation released a statement addressing the circumstances surrounding Magee’s exit, explaining that she initially left due to a family emergency concerning her mother’s health.
The Miss World Organisation, in a statement, said, “Earlier this month, Milla Magee requested to leave the competition due to a reported family emergency involving her mother’s health. As a mother and grandmother herself, Julia Morley CBE, chairwoman of Miss World, responded to Milla’s situation with compassion and immediately arranged her return to England, placing the well-being of the contestant and her family first.”
