The pageant is the oldest surviving major international beauty pageant. It was created in the United Kingdom by Eric Morley in 1951. Since his death in 2000, Morley’s wife, Julia Morley, co-chairs the pageant.
Alongside its rival Miss Universe and Miss Earth contests, this pageant is one of the most publicised beauty contests in the world.
