Miss International UK 2023 is Alisha Cowie of Newcastle


Newcastle's Alisha Cowie was crowned Miss International UK 2023 in a glittering competition held on Saturday, June 10 at the Parr Hall Theatre in Warrington, Chesire.

The 24-year-old model and professional photographer bested over 50 other competitors to win the national title. She succeeds last year's winner and Miss International 2022 Top 15 semifinalist Evanjelin Elchmanar.

Brooke Nicola Smith, Caitlin Ochana, Paige Warren, and Aimi Stanley were named the first, second, third, and fourth runners-up, respectively.

No stranger to pageantry, the new Miss International UK is a former Miss England winner who participated in Miss World 2018 in Sanya, China.

Alisha will now prepare to represent the United Kingdom at the 61st Miss International (Miss International 2023) pageant this October in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan.

"This wouldn't have been possible without the support of so many people," she wrote on social media and went on to thank her sponsors, friends, and family for their unwavering support in her journey to the crown.

"You have been the best cheerleaders and I am so grateful. Thank you for always supporting me, from the daily affirmations to the donations you’ve made to my fundraising, I love you all so much," she continued.

"The year ahead is going to be crazy and I’m so ready for it," she added.
