Miss World 2019 Toni-Ann Singh, 25, of Jamaica will crown her successor at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan, Puerto Rico in 2022. It will be the 70th edition of the oldest active international beauty pageant, which was created by Eric Morley in 1951.
On December 14, 2019, Singh was crowned Miss World 2019 at the ExCel London in London, England, United Kingdom. Ophély Mézino, 22, of France was first runner-up while Suman Rao, 22, of India was second runner-up.
Singh was not able to crown her successor in 2020 due to the new coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. She holds the record of the longest completed Miss World reign.
Singh was supposed to crown her successor on December 16, 2021. But on that day, it was announced that the coronation night would be rescheduled.
On December 14, 2021, Miss World Indonesia 2021 Carla Yules, 21, tested positive for COVID-19 and on December 15, 2021, the Puerto Rico Department of Health confirmed that there are 17 Miss World 2021 candidates and technical personnel who tested positive. On December 16, 2021, it was announced that Miss World Malaysia 2021 Lavanya Sivaji, 25, tested positive, as well.
