India's Deep Supriyam crowned Miss Elite 2022 in Egypt
India's Deep Supriyam was crowned Miss Elite 2022 in an international pageant held last Friday, June 10 at Somabay, a modern town resort on the Red Sea in Egypt.
The 28-year-old textile and costume designer from Mumbai succeeds last year's titleholder from Mexico, Fernanda Pumar. She bested over 30 other contestants to win the competition.
"My parents always offered me the freedom to be whoever I wanted to be, and maybe that’s the reason I’ve achieved few precious things in life and yet to achieve more," she shared on social media.
"I know that there are many women out there with a seed of dream they think one can live, to all those girls, go live it, enjoy each moment of reaching to it, because once you’re there it’s beautiful but the most memorable is the journey to it, it’s thrilling, challenging your patience, capability, belief and so much more when no one else sees it," she added.
Shanon Tampon of the Philippines was named the first runner-up while Valeria Sizova of Australia became the second runner-up.
The representatives of Venezuela, Yanuaria Verde, and Argentina, Caterina Bernal were the third and fourth runners-up, respectively.
