Three Generations of Delaware Family Crowned at World's Our Little Miss Pageant

TOWNSEND, Del. Three generations of one Delaware family are celebrating after earning world titles at the 2027 World's Our Little Miss Pageant, making history for the First State in the process.

Leading the family's showing was Kaitlynn Stewart of Townsend, who became the first contestant from Delaware ever crowned World's Universal Ms. Her mother, Kimberly Stewart, was named World's Universal Classic Ms. Princess. Kaitlynn's 4-year-old niece, Victoria Stewart, captured the title of World's Mini Queen (Ages 3 to 6). The trio's success marks a rare three-generation family victory on the international stage and represents one of Delaware's most unique pageant accomplishments.

For Kaitlynn Stewart, the title is about far more than wearing a crown. She is the owner of Kaitlynn's Creations, a small business specializing in handmade gifts and treats, and has used her platform to promote kindness, resilience and self-confidence. Living with Graves disease and vitiligo has strengthened her belief that differences should be celebrated rather than hidden. "Those experiences taught me resilience and confidence," Kaitlynn Stewart said. "I want others to know that what makes you different can become your greatest strength. Never stop believing in yourself or working toward your dreams."

Kimberly Stewart said: "As a dedicated nurse, proud mother, and loving grandmother, I have always been passionate about helping others. I believe in leading with compassion, kindness, and resilience, both in my personal life and in my career. Pageantry has given me the opportunity to inspire and empower others while embracing my own journey of growth and self-discovery. Whether I'm caring for patients, supporting my family, or serving my community, I strive to make a positive impact and encourage others to chase their dreams with confidence and determination."

Kaitlynn Stewart will serve as the 2027 World's Universal Ms. "I am beyond honored and humbled to serve as the 2027 World's Universal Ms.," she said. "I look forward to meeting new people, sharing my journey, making lifelong memories, and representing the Our Little Miss organization with pride, passion, and heart." Together, the Stewart family represented Delaware while bringing home three world titles. More information about the pageant system is available at ourlittlemiss.com.
