By TUW
Namibia welcomed a new national teen beauty queen on Friday evening as Jessica Kurth was crowned Miss Teen Namibia 2026 after impressing judges in a closely contested pageant featuring 10 finalists from across the country.
Kurth secured the prestigious title ahead of Skyler Viviers, who finished as the first runner-up, while Jacklyn Skrywer earned the second runner-up position following the competition.
The newly crowned queen received the sash and crown from outgoing titleholder Chantel Boreen, bringing Boreen’s reign as Miss Teen Namibia 2025 to a close.
Reflecting on her tenure during her farewell address, Boreen described her year as titleholder as an important milestone in her pageantry journey, saying it was not the end but rather the beginning of a new chapter.
Attention now turns to the highly anticipated Miss Namibia 2026 grand finale, scheduled for Saturday evening in Gobabis. Reigning Miss Namibia Johanna Swartbooi is expected to crown her successor, who will become the country’s new national beauty queen.
