Anneline Kriel marks 50 years since her Miss World crowning, reflecting on her journey from controversy to a successful career and life in anonymity in Mauritius.
Anneline Kriel , who was once married to businessman Sol Kerzner, is marking 50 years since her Miss World crowning by default, reflecting on her extraordinary journey. In a social media post, Kriel shared her feelings of gratitude and joy. Initially placed as the first princess at the 1974 Miss World pageant in London, she became the winner after the disqualification of the previous winner, Helen Morgan.
Her reign was controversial due to South Africa's apartheid and international sanctions, which made her tour challenging. After her reign, Kriel pursued a successful career as an actress and model, earning the nickname 'South Africa's Princess Di.' She now lives in anonymity in Mauritius
