Rolene Strauss Facts
Rolene is Miss World 2014. She was crowned with the title in December 2014 during the contest held in Excel Arena, London, UK.
From her Twitter profile “…I see my passion for health, women, and education as the cornerstone of my purpose.”
Rolene is the second South African woman to win the Miss World pageant. However, she is the third South African woman to hold this title.
Rolene Strauss is not related to Jo-Ann Strauss (Miss South Africa 2000).
Since 2000, she wanted to win the Miss South Africa title. Rolene, in 2000 (she was 8 years old at that time), saw Jo-Ann Strauss winning the title and dreamed of becoming like her one day. She achieved her dream in March 2014.
Her family consists of medical experts. She herself studied medicine. Her mom is a nurse and her dad is a doctor.
She was still studying in her 4th year (medical degree) at the University of the Free State when she won the Miss World 2014 title. So, she had to put her studies on hold to prepare for the contest.
Professor Jonathan Jansen, the rector of the University of the Free State is her role model. She has learned so much from him.
She is the University of the Free State’s first successful test-tube baby. Actually, her parents were having problems conceiving for five years. She has said, “I’m a test tube baby and I believe my passion for health was born with me”.
Her mom and dad went to the “University of the Free State” in Bloemfontein. Later, she also went to the same university to study medicine.
At the age of 15, she won the national selection of Elite Model Look International by beating 11 other contestants. Nationally, she is the youngest winner.
As she won Miss World 2014, she was not given the chance to compete at Miss Universe 2014. Instead, the first runner-up of Miss South Africa 2014, Ziphozakhe Zokufa was given the chance to represent South Africa at Miss Universe 2014 pageant.
She is fluent in Afrikaans and English.
She likes to play golf.
She won the Miss South Africa title in 2014. But, this was not her first attempt to try to win this title. She also tried her luck back in 2011. But, at that time, she got to come in the top 5 positions.
