Fatima Bosch Stands Firm Amid Explosive Miss Universe Scandal
FATIMA BOSCH – Miss Universe 2025 Fatima Bosch is standing her ground as she confronts the barrage of accusations questioning her hard-earned victory.
Miss Universe 2025 Fatima Bosch has finally broken her silence regarding the accusations surrounding her recent victory. In an interview on ABC News’ “Good Morning America,” she addressed the swirling allegations of favoritism and vote-rigging that critics claim paved her way to the crown.
Fatima firmly denied rumors suggesting her triumph was influenced by supposed ties between her father, Bernardo Bosch Hernandez, and Miss Universe Organization (MUO) co-owner Raul Rocha. According to online claims, the two men were allegedly business partners, a connection said to have played a role in her win. The beauty queen quickly shut down these accusations.

“They make, like, this campaign of hate. My father has nothing to do with the organization.
“And it’s crazy. How are you going to buy a crown? Maybe in Walmart, you can buy a crown, yeah. But not in Miss Universe, for sure,” she stressed.
She also responded to allegations brought forward by Lebanese composer-businessman Omar Harfouch, who claimed that the Top 30 candidates were predetermined before the actual pageant took place. The newly crowned Miss Universe did not hold back when reacting to this assertion.
“My response to them and to him was that if maybe he wanted, like, more followers on Instagram, he should, like, I don’t know, get into a [TV] show,” Fatima said.
Despite the controversies, Fatima remains steadfast in her decision to keep her title. She emphasized that resigning is not an option, especially after the effort she put into the competition.
“I think I make history. So why not?
“But of course, no, I make the same effort that all the pageant [candidates] make. And this is a job. I will never step away for this crown because I work really, really hard to be here,” she explained.

Fatima further highlighted her purpose and intentions as Miss Universe, clarifying that her role goes beyond public attention or personal gain.
“I’m not here for fame of modelling or searching [for a] husband. I’m here because God put a purpose on my heart. I have a mission and I will do that all year, to serve others and help,” she added.
