Miss Earth Puerto Rico 2025 is Valeria Meléndez of Caguas


Miss Earth Caguas Valeria Meléndez was proclaimed Miss Earth Puerto Rico 2025 in a national competition held on Saturday, February 1 at the Centro de Bellas Artes de Caguas.

The 25-year-old fashion designer edged out 17 other contestants to win the national title. She will represent Puerto Rico at the Miss Earth 2025 pageant.

Valeria was crowned by her predecessor Bianca Caraballo who made the Top 8 at Miss Earth 2024 last November in the Philippines.

"I still can't find the words to describe what I feel right now. It has been a path of much effort, sacrifices, and growth, but every step has been worth it," she shared online.

"This crown is not just mine, it belongs to everyone who has been part of this dream. Now a new chapter begins, and I promise to give my best on the international stage. Puerto Rico, this is for you."

The new Miss Earth Puerto Rico was joined by her co-winners Miss Global Puerto Rico 2025 Gabriela Vázquez of Salinas and Miss Earth Puerto Rico 2026 Cecilia Acosta Conley of Río Grande.

Gabriela and Cecilia are expected to compete at the Miss Global 2025 and Miss Earth 2026 pageants, respectively.
