Kelly Weekers (born 20 August 1989) is a Dutch tv host, psychologist, author model and beauty pageant titleholder who won Miss Nederland 2011 and represented her country at Miss Universe 2011[1] where she placed Top 16.
Early life and education[edit]
Weekers grew up with her sister Romy and parents. During her high school years Weekers worked as a waitress, where she was scouted multiple times by agencies and started modelling. Weekers proceeded modelling as a part-time job during her high school and college years.
In September 2012, Weekers decided she wanted to go back to University.[which?] After receiving her bachelor's degree in Psychology and Neuroscience in the summer of 2011 and a sabbatical year of full-time Miss Netherlands activities and modeling, she wanted to obtain her master's degree in Clinical and Health psychology. With only a half year internship left to complete, Weekers was a Master in Clinical and Health psychology in March 2014.[citation needed]
Career[edit]
Pageantry[edit]
In April 2011, Weekers became Miss Limburg (the Miss of her province), which automatically made her compete in the grand finale of Miss Netherlands, which she won on 10 July 2011. At 21-years-old, Weekers became Miss Netherlands Universe, which made her one of the 89 official competitors in the Miss Universe 2011 pageant. In September, she went to Brazil for a month to compete for the title of Miss Universe 2011.[1] During the grand finale, after 20 years of non-placement, the Netherlands penetrated the Top 16 with Weekers as their ambassador.[citation needed]
After this victory, Weekers combined her work as Miss Netherlands Universe with modeling and traveled across the world. She went from the Five Star Diamond Awards in Cannes to judging a pageant in Washington, D.C., and from doing charity work at an orphanage in Thailand to an appearance at the Grand Prix in Singapore. In between, Weekers did her model castings in Amsterdam, Milan and Munich.[2]
Books[edit]
Weekers has sold over 250,000 books and founded her own publishing house, Moonshot Publishing and other company, Moonshot Coaching.[vague]
By 2022, she published her book, 'The Power of Choice'. In 2023, she published, 'Happy Life 365'.[citation needed]
Personal life[edit]
She’s a mother to two young children and lives since September 2023 on Ibiza.
