Returning empty-handed from the 2023 edition of the Miss Universe competition, Diane Leyre revealed that she had suffered cyberharassment on social networks. The young woman returned to these actions on her Instagram account.
Favorite of the Miss Universe 2023 competition, Diane Leyre finally returned to France without the crown and without being part of the top 20. In addition to this disappointment, the former candidate had to face violence on social networks. A few days after the competition, Diane Leyre confided to TV Magazine having been a victim of cyberharassment after the Preliminary Show, the parade during which the candidates revealed their national costumes. On Instagram, this Friday, December 1, the winner of Miss France 2022 returned to the wave of hatred she suffered.
“This last week has been difficult. I didn’t think one day I would receive so many violent messages.without real justification“she confides, recalling the workload represented by the international competition. “For several months, I got up every morning determined to take my country to the top. Believe me, the nights were short, filled with doubtsquestioning but above all determination“explains the one who describes herself as “a fierce one”. For Diane Leyre, it was her time on stage that failed her. “Unfortunately, there are things which, despite a lot of work, will never be completely acquired. This is the scene for me. Revealing yourself, parading, being sexy, is something that has never suited me“she specifies, confidently hiding “a lot of shyness” under the “trust in [elle]” that she seems to release. In an interview given to Aufeminin a few days ago, Estelle Sabathier, who accompanied Diane Leyre to El Salvador, already described the scene as being her “weakness”.

Despite everything, the former candidate intends to give a strong response to the contemptuous comments she received. “I will always own my mistakes. I will always be whole and faithful to my convictions. And above all, never smooth in my words to please everyone“says the one who counts “to use [sa] voice against cyberbullying“. For Diane Leyre, “he is out of the question that one day anyone will denigrate themselves due to the violence of the words and evils of others“. She concludes by sending a strong message to her subscribers, inviting them not to let themselves be affected by cyberviolence: “Never forget who you are. And when others question you, let time prove them wrong to doubt yourself. The rest of the story will be even more beautiful.“
