Miss Universe Iceland 2025 is Helena Hafþórsdóttir O'Connor


Helena Hafþórsdóttir O'Connor was crowned Ungfrú Ísland 2025 (Miss Universe Iceland) on Thursday, April 3 at Gamla Bíó in Reykjavik.

The 20-year-old beauty from Viðey bested 19 other contestants to win the national title. Guðrún Eva Hauksdóttir and Kamilla Guðrún Lowen were the first and second runners-up, respectively.

"I’m beyond honored and grateful to be crowned Miss Universe Iceland, Ungfrú Ísland," Helena shared online.

"This journey has been filled with challenges, growth, and unforgettable moments—and I want to say from the bottom of my heart: thank you," she added.

No stranger to pageantry, the new Miss Universe Iceland was named last year's Miss Supranational Iceland. She went to Poland for Miss Supranational 2024 and made the Top 25.

Helena succeeds last year's winner Sóldís Vala Ívarsdóttir and will now prepare to represent Iceland at Miss Universe 2025 to be held in Thailand this November.

She posted, "To anyone out there with a dream in their heart—never stop chasing it. The right doors won’t open for you until you are the version of yourself that’s supposed to walk through them."

"With dedication, hard work, and belief in yourself, anything is possible. This crown is proof that dreams really do come true when you refuse to give up."
