why did this candidate end up in a wheelchair during the trip to Ivory Coast?

On Saturday December 14, 2024, Eve Gilles puts her Miss France crown back into play during a highly anticipated ceremony organized at the Futuroscope Arena, in Paris. An exceptional evening during which the 30 regional misses competing in the competition will try to convince the public and the jury to perhaps be elected Miss France 2025. But before being crowned beauty queen and perhaps representing the France in the Miss Universe competition, like personalities like Iris Mittenaere or more recently Indira Ampiot, the candidates flew to Ivory Coast.

It was in Abidjan that the 30 contenders for the title of Miss France 2025 met to participate in the preparatory trip for the election, as is tradition. The opportunity to make the final adjustments in terms of makeup, speech, fashion show and attitude in order to be definitively ready for the big night. But obviously, everything does not seem to have gone as planned during this stay, at least for some candidates.

Miss France 2025: “She ends up pushed into an armchair”

During this African stay, a colleague from Le Parisien followed the 30 regional misses throughout their adventures. And if the trip seems to have gone well overall, some contenders for the crown of Miss France 2025 encountered some problems. This is particularly the case of Miss Roussillon, victim of “big cramps” but also Miss Réunion who suffered a foot injury.

“She ends up pushed into an armchair to rest her arch,” can we read in the columns of Le Parisien. A few days before the grand final of the Miss France 2025 competition, can this injury call into question the candidacy of Miss Réunion? In any case, this seems to have been considerably hampered during his stay in Abidjan.

Miss France 2025: a serious injury?

As our colleague present alongside the regional misses in Ivory Coast explains, Miss Reunion was sidelined from the rest of the participants due to her injury. “During the group photo in a two-piece swimsuit, in another heavenly hotel on the edge of the lagoon, an hour from the economic capital, this Thursday, she even waits aside, seated, while her 29 comrades pose at length”reports our colleague.

But what exactly happened to cause the young woman to find herself in such a situation? Still according to our colleague, she “walked barefoot on a fish bone on the beach”. Although this may seem trivial, the case is described as “serious”. It remains to be seen whether the candidate will regain her abilities in order to compete in the best conditions during the Miss France 2025 final.
