Miss Universe Ukraine 2025 is Sofiya Tkachuk from Rivne


Sofiya Tkachuk, 25, from Rivne, has recently been crowned Miss Universe Ukraine 2025 and will represent Ukraine at the 74th Miss Universe pageant.

Anastasiia Hrytsak was named first runner-up while Karina Zakharash, Anna Fedorenko, and Alice-Maria Oleksyuk were the second, third, and fourth runners-up, respectively.

In view of the ongoing full-scale war in Ukraine, the Miss Universe Ukraine organizing committee has once again decided not to hold a national pageant. The finalists were selected through online voting.

The new Miss Universe Ukraine succeeds last year's titleholder Alina Ponomarenko and will head to Thailand this November to compete in Miss Universe 2025.

"When I was four years old, my family moved abroad. I grew up among different languages and cultures, but I always felt: my roots are in Ukraine, and my soul is Ukrainian," she said.

Sofiya holds a degree in finance from EAE Business School in Barcelona and is fluent in English and Spanish. Her life and professional journey span both humanitarian missions and business experience.

She has worked with the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), coordinated projects in partnership with UNICEF, and contributed to the development of alternative pain relief methods for patients with severe illnesses.
