Diana Hayden (1997)
The third Indian woman to win the Miss World title, Diana Hayden is the only Miss World title holder to secure three subtitles during the competition held in Baie Lazare, Seychelles. She clinched the Miss World Asia and Oceania, Miss Photogenic, and Spectacular Swimwear titles. After winning the Miss World title, she had a great career in the entertainment industry and philanthropic gestures.
During the Q&A segment, Diana was asked "Why do you want to become Miss World?" She responded, "I draw inspiration from a famous writer and poet, William Butler Yeats, who once wrote - 'With Dreams Begin Responsibility.' Well for me, this title is that dream and the responsibility it brings, I cherish that in a small way, I could make a difference and help the dreams of others. Thank you."
