1. Diane, congratulations on being a finalist for Mrs Unity Netherlands 2025! How does it feel to be part of a competition that embraces diversity and unity?
Thank you 🥰 I am very excited to be part of this first NL edition. Also the key words and their vision was and is something that I can find myself in.
2. Could you share some of the key elements of your preparation for Mrs Unity Netherlands? Are there any particular routines or practices you’ve found especially helpful?
Yes of course, we get lessons in catwalk walking and posing. Oh and we have to do a dance so that needs much practice also😁
3. What does the vision of Mrs Unity—focusing on diversity, unity, and social commitment—mean to you personally?
I am a proud curvy woman and for some people I do not fit in the beauty standards. But at Miss Unity Netherlands everyone is a beautiful person on her own way. Everyone is unique and her own person… And that is what they are looking for. So no beauty standard but more important standers like diversity, unity and social commitment.
4. You previously represented the Netherlands as Miss Elite Diversity Netherlands 2024. How does competing in Miss Unity Netherlands feel different for you?
It is a new opportunitie for me that is the first. And the second this organization is so much fun and it feels good to me. At miss Diversity Netherlands I learned a lot and that was so much fun… So now it is time to shine on this stage ☺
5. As a curvy model, how do you see the representation of curvy women evolving in pageantry and modeling?
I see more beautiful curvy woman then before. So I think that if they are secure enough that they will show themselves. And I will support them if they want to
6. What message would you like to share with other curvy women who aspire to enter the world of modeling and pageantry?
Just do it! If you are secure enough and you enjoy it… Why shouldn’t you do it? Love yourself and show yourself… Be the best you!
7. In Mrs Unity, finalists are encouraged to participate in community projects. Are there any causes you’re especially passionate about that you’d like to focus on?
For now I will focus on the ALS foundation. We have a fun plan to raise a lot of money in a fun and enjoyable way. So i’m very excited
8. One of the pageant’s initiatives is to support the ALS Netherlands Foundation. How has participating in this initiative shaped your perspective on the role of pageants in social causes?
I think the power of social media is very strong if used well. Supporting a good cause with a beauty pageant ensures that a whole group is committed to 1 good cause. It is effective and also fun to do.
9. Mrs Unity Netherlands offers workshops on personal development, leadership, and social engagement. Which of these workshops has had the greatest impact on you?
We are still in the middle of the training process. But I learn more every training. It is not only training for the final but also to develop yourself and become a stronger person. So I think these workshops together have the greatest impact.
10. What personal qualities do you believe make you a strong candidate for Mrs Unity Netherlands?
I think by being myself. My cheerful, fun self who also supports the other candidates where I can. That I am a proud, full lady who is also sometimes insecure and dares to admit that.
11. How do you balance the expectations and pressures of pageantry with staying true to who you are?
I think staying true to myself is very important. Pretending to be someone else is pointless. That’s why I want to shine in the final as myself and I will succeed!
12. Miss Unity celebrates a diverse range of cultures and backgrounds. What part of your Dutch heritage or personal experiences are you most proud to share with others?
That is my personal experience. I stand for self-love but I know very well how difficult that is. But despite it being difficult it is also very important.
13. This competition emphasizes unity and cooperation among participants. Could you share a memorable experience you’ve had with other contestants that reflects this spirit?
Unfortunately my father is very bad during this process. These girls and also the organization support me a lot in this. They are a listening ear when I need them and when I need a hug I get one.
14. As someone in the public eye, how do you feel about the responsibility of being a role model for women and girls who look up to you?
I think it would be a great honor if they would look up to me. I stand there as a curvy lady with a mission for self-love.
15. Pageants often focus on external beauty, but Miss Unity goes deeper. In your view, what defines inner beauty, and how do you cultivate it in your life?
Inner beauty to me is how you are inside, how you think and how you are there for others. If you are beautiful inside, I automatically find you much more beautiful on the outside.
16. Where do you hope to see yourself in five years, both professionally and personally?
I would love to be able to be an example for both boys and girls when it comes to self-love. I think everyone deserves that and I like to spread that message.
17. What has been the most challenging part of this journey for you, and how have you overcome it?
The most challenging thing for me is the confident and crossed walking and so now the situation with my father. The walking is a matter of a lot of practice. So every time I walk the dog I practice my walking.
18. As a finalist, you’ll have the chance to speak on a platform. Is there a particular social issue or message you’d like to highlight?
My message is Love yourself first ❤. This is a message I fully support and want to promote to everyone.
19. Can you share any advice for young women who feel underrepresented or discouraged in their own journeys, whether in modeling, pageantry, or life in general?
Love yourself first ❤. That is the most important message I can give. Everyone has an opinion and that will always be the case. So make sure your own opinion about yourself is good.
20. Finally, if you were to win Mrs Unity Netherlands, what legacy would you hope to leave, and what impact would you strive to make in the world?
If I win I will work even harder for self-love. I think everyone deserves that but it is definitely not easy. I will also help people with that where and as best as I can.
