Demi Leigh Nel Peters was born on 28 June 1995 in Sedgefield South Africa. She is a South African model and beauty pageant title holder who was crowned Miss Universe 2017. She previously was crowned Miss South Africa 2017, and is the second Miss Universe winner from South Africa, following Miss Universe 1978 Margaret Gardiner.
Her half-sister, Franje, has a physical disability, and Nel-Peters says that she is the most significant motivator in her life. She received a degree in business management from North-West University, and is fluent in both English and Afrikaans. As Miss Universe you have to be confident in who you are as an individual. And Miss Universe is a woman that has overcome many fears and by that she is able to help other women to overcome their fears.
She is a woman that nothing is ever too much to ask for and I think that is exactly who I am.” She went on to win the competition and was crowned Miss Universe 2017 by outgoing titleholder Iris Mittenaere. Nel-Peters is the second titleholder from South Africa, and the first since Margaret Gardiner won Miss Universe 1978.
