Did Nawat Itsaragrisil berate Miss Universe Mexico?

As per reports, Itsaragrisil called Bosch ‘dumb head.’ And called her out for not participating in promotional materials for Thailand. This is when many models walked out of the event.

The controversy and chaos

The Miss Universe 2025 edition held in Thailand was making noise on social media but for all the wrong reasons. Several models, including Miss Universe Mexico, staged a walk out after the organizer of the show Nawat Itsaragrisil reportedly berated Mexico’s beauty queen Fátima Bosch. The episode snowballed into massive controversy and the organizer has even issued a statement.

Fátima Bosch breaks silence

I just want to let my country know, I’m not afraid to make my voice heard. It’s here stronger than ever. I have a purpose. I have things to say. We’re in the 21st century. I’m not a doll to be made up, styled and have my clothes changed. I came here to be a voice for all the women and all the girls who fight for causes and to tell my country that I’m completely committed to that.

Bosch added about Nawat, “He just said to me, ‘shut up,’ and a lot of different things. And I think that the world needs to see this because we are empowered women, and this is a platform for our voice, and no one can shut our voice.”
