Miss Universe 2025 Winner Crowned: Meet Fátima Bosch Fernandez, The Queen Who Stood Up to an Executive

 

Miss Mexico Fátima Bosch Fernandez has been crowned the 2025 Miss Universe winner. The native of Tabasco, Mexico, achieved an emotional victory just weeks after making global headlines for taking a powerful stand against an event executive.

The newly crowned Miss Universe is Fátima Bosch Fernández. She is 25 years old, born on May 19, 2000. Notably, she is the first woman from her state in Mexico to win the Miss Universe title. The news article about her victory was written by Vivian and published on November 21, 2025, at 11:38 AM EST.

The Viral Walkout and Public Stand

Fátima’s victory followed weeks of high-profile controversy. She made headlines leading up to her crowning after walking out of a sash ceremony when an executive publicly insulted her. Multiple other Miss Universe contestants followed Fátima out of the room in solidarity.

The incident involved event director Nawat Itsaragrisil, who called Fátima a “dummy,” a comment captured in a clip from a livestream. The footage of the incident quickly went viral on the internet.

Fátima spoke out about the disrespect in a video shared via Instagram in November 2025. She stated clearly, “Your director is not respectful. He called me dumb”. Fátima argued that the insult was unfair because she was present, doing “everything okay,” and trying to be kind. She emphasized the importance of their platform: “I think that the world needs to see this because we are empowered women, and this is a platform for our voice”. As she began to walk out, she publicly asserted her right to respect, saying, “Because I have a voice. You are not respecting me as a woman”.

Organization Condemns Executive’s Actions

The Miss Universe Organization’s president, Raúl Rocha Cantú, strongly condemned the executive, Nawat, for his “crude remark”. Raúl Rocha Cantú issued a statement expressing his “great indignation” toward Nawat for the public aggression committed against Fátima Bosch.

The president explained that Nawat had “humiliated, insulted,” and “showed a lack of respect” toward Fátima. Furthermore, he highlighted a “serious abuse” involving the alleged attempt to silence and exclude Fátima by calling security to intimidate the “defenceless woman”.

Philanthropy Remains Her Focus

Despite her new title, Fátima’s priorities remain centered on her philanthropic efforts. Her Instagram page shows that she regularly visits children’s hospitals to bring joy to young patients.

Fátima once shared a sweet photo on Instagram from a hospital room, noting that “Every encounter with these little angels fills my heart with hope and gratitude”. She described the children as a “great example of strength and courage,” adding that they remind her every day why she is there.
