Maëva Coucke, Miss 2018, spoke out to denounce the sexism and cyberharassment of which, according to her, the winners of the competition are victims. A first.

“It’s the first time that a Miss has spoken about it openly,” commented the former in the columns of The Voice of the North, Miss -Pas-de- and Miss France 2018 Maëva Coucke on the subject of a program broadcast on France 2 in which she discussed sexism and smear campaigns on the networks of which the misses are victims.

In the show “Dans les yeux d’Olivier”, Maëva Coucke returned to a scourge affecting misses: cyberharassment. Overexposed, the misses would not be sufficiently prepared for the avalanche of comments flourishing on the networks from the evening of their election. “Broomstick”, “skeleton”, Internet users were not kind to Miss France 2018, but she recognizes that it was nothing compared to the wave of hatred received by Eve Gilles, Miss France 2024 and by her successor, Angélique Angarni-Filopon, Miss France 2025. “We thought we had reached the summit, and we realize that not with Angélique, where racist remarks are mixed in”, she laments.

Maëva Coucke has therefore given herself the mission of supporting the candidates for the crown. She therefore accompanied them to Ivory Coast in 2024, to warn them that “victory would be accompanied by a wave of hatred”. In addition to hatred, the former Miss evokes the messages of a sexist and sexual nature received on a daily basis.
