In an announcement done minutes ago by Miss Earth Netherlands Organization, Tessa le Conge has been appointed Miss Earth Netherlands 2020 and will now represent her country in Miss Earth 2020. Tessa succeeds Miss Earth Netherlands 2019 Nikki Prein.

The organization took this decision in regards to the current situation of global lockdown all over the world due to the spread of coronavirus. “Due to the COVID 19 virus and it’s effects on the world and many many people, we want to live by the restrictions from our government. For our health and the health of the ones we love to”, it stated.

Tessa has already brought so much pride to her nation with her past endeavours. The 26-year-old beauty earned her Bachelor of Science in Communications degree and now works as a Communication advisor. Besides that she’s a professional trampoline gymnast.

Not new to the pageantry, in 2016, she became 1st runner-up in Miss Beauty of the Netherlands and represented our country in Miss Asia Pacific International. She ended up in the highest placement and won the first crown for the Netherlands. Holding the Miss Asia Pacific International 2016 crown, Tessa has come a long way in the last four years and will surely be a strong contender at Miss Earth 2020 platform as well.

She took to her official social media to reveal her participation in the post captioned, “The word is out, unreal! Incredibly honored describes best how I feel right now. I am chosen to represent our country this year in one of the biggest beauty pageants in the world: Miss Earth. So many emotions are running right now: joy, excitement and above all gratitude. A big thank you to all the people who believe in me. Especially the organisation of @missbeautyofthenetherlands for their faith en the major honour of representing our country one last time with pride.

Last year, Nikki Prein represented Netherlands in Miss Earth 2019 and with her stunning performance, she placed in the Top 10 at the end of the event finale. Netherlands is yet to pioneer its win in Miss Earth competition.
