A Ukrainian beauty has told how she warned her Russian rivals to keep away from her as they competed in the Mrs World 2023 competition in Las Vegas.
Married mum Yelena Yelizarova, 37, whose husband is in Ukraine’s National Guard. Was representing her homeland at the pageant last September (2023).
Furious Yelena told Ukrainian media how she gave Mrs Russia and Mrs Ural their marching orders when they tried the buddy up with her backstage at the show.
Blonde Yelena, who runs her own jewellery business, said she was appalled when they tried to get close behind the scenes.
She said: “I greeted all the participants, but I made it clear to them that we stay away from each other.”
Yelena explained that the Russian contestants got the message and staged a tactical retreat.
The contest was eventually won by the German contestant, Julia Schnelle.
