Miss Universe Thailand 2017 is Mareeya Poonlertlap Ehren

Last July 29, 2017, Mareeya Lynn Poonlertlap Ehren (MUT 05) bested out other 39 constestants and emerged victorious as she was crowned as Miss Universe Thailand 2017 at the Siam Paragon Hall. She will represent Thailand in the 66th Miss Universe pageant, which date and venue is yet to be announced. 

Mareeya is a 25-year old half-Thai and half-Swedish model. She stands 6-feet tall and speaks four languages: Thai, English, Swedish and Mandarin. 

According to Bangkok Post, she won 1 million baht, a diamond tiara and a car, as well as a trophy.

Placing second as the first runner-up is Supaporn Litiphruek (MUT 38) and second runners-up are Suraphuen Artkongharn (MUT 21), Ratchanok Nawaset (MUT 34) and Paweensuda Du-uen (MUT 03).

After Miss Universe Thailand 2016 Chalita Suansane's Top 6 finish at the 65th Miss Universe pageant held in the Philippines last January, is Maria going to keep Thailand's momentum? Is she the one who will give Thailand's 3rd Miss Universe crown?
