I am done – Chidimma Adetshina quits pageantry

Miss Universe runner-up, Chidimma Adetshina, has revealed her decision to step away from pageantry.

In a recent interview with Silverbird TV, Adetshina described her experience in the industry as traumatic.

Citing personal reasons, she announced her intention to leave pageantry and relocate to Nigeria from her estranged home, South Africa.

“Finishing in the top 2 [at the Miss Universe competition] is still a shocker for me… Honestly, I am done. Pageantry was a real traumatic experience for me,” she said.

“People still don’t understand how I felt. There were times when I almost quit during the Miss Universe contest. I’m really done with pageantry. I want to focus on myself and establish who I am. And forward my education as well.”
