    Quotes

    Julia Morley CBE, Chairwoman and Founder of Miss World, said:

    “It fills me with pride to see Beauty with a Purpose celebrated in such a meaningful way. Opal’s UK BWAP Tour represents everything Miss World stands for, compassion, intelligence, and a commitment to lifting others. Today is not only a celebration of UK–Thailand friendship, but a reminder of how powerful women’s voices can be when united for good.”

    “To be part of this moment is both humbling and empowering. Representing Thailand as the first Thai Miss World, and sharing the stories of resilience and impact from my BWAP Tour here at the Thai Embassy in the UK, makes me feel deeply grateful and happy. This event reminded me that no matter where we come from, education, empathy, and purpose can truly connect and transform lives.”
