I don’t even know where to start. This day last year I was on holidays watching @missuniverse online and I said to @ryancoleman4734 “I am going to be there next year” – and here I am. What an experience. Making the top 20 in the most prestigious pageant in the world is an accomplishment I can’t put into words. Thank you to everyone for all of your support and kind words. I am absolutely speechless at the amount of support I have received from everyone at home in Buncrana, family around the world, people I have never even met. Thank you all, I promise I will get back to everyone eventually. I am so humbled and grateful to all of you. To all of the amazing women I had the pleasure of meeting and sharing the stage with, especially @sarahrosesummers @francesca.hung @deeannkentishrogers and @wabaiyakariuki – thank you for making every day more fun than the last. Thank you @brittanymasonofficial and @srpatch for all the unlimited support, I am forever grateful. Thank you to my family for travelling all the way to Thailand and always believing in me. Thank you to everyone in Ireland for believing in me to represent our beautiful wee Emerald Isle ???????? This beautiful dress was made by @carlos_albertodisenador and I’m in love with it. Congrats @catriona_gray ! Now to eat as much dominos, McDonald’s, ice cream and chocolate that I can imagine. #missuniverse #missuniverseireland
