Darline Devos, organizer Miss Belgium: “I think those girls also support me today, they are all here with us in De Panne today. I have also explained them. I am in shock. I have never really experienced anything like that. It hurts my heart a lot. What hurts the fact that I have caused her as a mother.”
The organization does have the contracts reviewed, but in any case continues with the Miss Belgium election. “I think that a girl who participates in the election blooms open, becomes stronger, becomes a stronger woman. She gets to know things from herself, whom she does not learn in daily life. I still think that is a good way to grow up.”
