Courtenay Hamilton

Courtenay is our winner!

On 26 June 2010, Courtenay was crowned Miss Wales. The 20 year old classical singer won the title following an interview with a line up of eight judges, and then three catwalk rounds: Welsh wear, party wear and evening wear. We think she’s a great Miss Wales!
