"Last saturday you gave me the most beautiful gift. You have forever changed my life. I believed in you and you believed in me. It's barely been 2 days since my coronation and I'm still having trouble realizing what's happening to me. 
My Guadeloupe, I bring you the crown and our sublime Ophély Mézino wins you the sash of 1st Runner-up of Miss World. What a year for our butterfly (Guadeloupe) ! I of course have a thought for all my sisters, you are forever engraved in my heart  
I am so looking forward to living this year alongside all French people. 
Because making your life a dream and a dream a reality is my leitmotif, thank you all for changing my life forever. "
Clémence Botino
