For the first time in history, a trans woman has been crowned “Miss Netherlands”. It is 22-year-old Rikkie Valerie Kolle who ran away with the victory in the given miss competition on Saturday evening, writes TMZ.
Miss quarrel: – Run away from me
This means that it is she who will represent the Netherlands when the stage is set for “Miss Universe” in El Salvador later this year. There she will compete against representatives from all over the world.

It didn’t take long after the coronation before Kolle took to Instagram to comment on the victory.
“Loved every moment”
In the post that she has shared with her 26,000 followers, the recent Miss Queen writes that it is all unreal.
Creates reactions
“I did it! It’s unreal, but I can call myself ‘Miss Netherlands 2023’. It was an educational and wonderful process, and now there is nothing that can go wrong this year,” she writes initially and continues:
“I am so proud and happy that I cannot describe it in words. I made my environment proud and showed that it can be done. And yes, I’m trans and I’d like to share my story, but I’m also Rikkie and that’s what matters to me.”

In conclusion, she thanks everyone in the “Miss Netherlands” system and writes that she is looking forward to “Miss Universe”.
First trans woman
Despite the fact that Kolle writes herself into the history books in the Netherlands, she is not the first trans woman to participate in “Miss Universe”. If you turn back the clock to 2018, it was then “Miss Spain”, Angela Ponce (32) who was the first, writes Washington Post.
Miss Ukraine is celebrated
Despite not winning the competition, she was proud and humbled to have been given the opportunity to participate.
– This is for you, who are not visible, who do not have a voice, because we all deserve to live in a world with respect, inclusion and freedom. Today I am here, proudly representing my nation, all women and human rights, Ponce said at the time.
