Miss Nepal 2018 found its queens last night, when amongst pomp and show four beauty queens walked hand in hand to complete the class of Miss Nepal 2018.

Miss Universe Nepal 2018 is a difficult title to hold. It’s only the second time that the country will be sending off a representative to the prestigious Miss Universe pageant. The responsibility of the title Miss Universe Nepal 2018 has landed on the shoulders of Manita Devkota. Manita had to compete against a total of 25 contestants to win the crown.

The Miss Universe 2018 crown was won by Manita Devkota, and she was crowned by Miss Universe Nepal 2017 Nagma Shrestha. Manita will now represent Nepal at the 2018 Miss Universe pageant where Miss Universe 2017 Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters will crown her successor. Miss World Nepal 2017 Nikita Chandak passed on her crown to the gorgeous Miss World Nepal 2018 Shrinkhala Khatiwada. Miss Earth Nepal 2017 Rojina Shrestha also passed on her crown to Miss Earth Nepal 2018 Priya Sigdel. Miss International Nepal 2018 Ronali Amatya received her crown from predecessor Miss International Nepal 2017 Niti Shah.

Manita shared a heartwarming message on social media, describing her journey at Miss Nepal 2018. She said “Can you believe Miss Nepal 2018 finale is in two more days? So much has changed in these past seven weeks. I am a different person, mentally and physically than the one that auditioned on Feb 19th. I’ve created such strong bonds, learned more about Nepal, and found myself in the process. I will be forever thankful to THT for giving me this life-changing experience. No matter what happens in the final stage, we 25 are already Miss Nepals.”

The winners, Top 14 and special award winners were updated live on our website as well.

It will be exciting to see how far Manita takes Nepal at the Miss Universe 2018 competition.
