MISS York Anastasia Smith reached the last 15 in the Miss England contest – but failed to win the crown.
Anastasia, 20, from Norton, near Malton, said she found the two-day competition at the Hilton Metropole in Birmingham ‘absolutely exhausting.’ She said: “It’s been an incredibly busy two days but I’ve really enjoyed it.”
She was fast-tracked to the last 15 from a total of 61 contestants after winning the individual Miss Helen E award.
She went into the final with a good tan and white teeth, thanks to a spray tanning and laser teeth whitening service provided by Verity Cook’s new mobile business, Discover A New You.
Now Anastasia is looking forward to running in the Jane Tomlinson 10k race in York later this month, and has modelling assignments lined up.
