Magdelin Martinez, who had been selected as the representative of the Dominican diaspora in the United States for the Miss Dominican Republic Universe 2025 pageant, officially announced her resignationfrom the competition.
The news was confirmed through a statement released on his official social media accounts, where he clearly and calmly explained the reasons behind his decision.
The words of Magdelin Martínez
In her social media accounts, the ex-participant confirmed everything:
“After a journey full of learning, experiences and growth, I have decided to end my participation in the Miss Dominican Republic Universe 2025 pageant,” said Martinez in her message.
The young woman emphasized that this decision was made “based on reflection, self-respect and deep respect for the processes that transform us,” which reflects a mature and conscious stance.
Personal and professional reasons: a thoughtful choice
Although she did not offer specific details about the reasons, Magdelin said that her retirement was motivated by “personal and professional reasons that today require my full attention and conscious presence”.
This statement suggests a focus on holistic wellness, prioritizing their personal development beyond media exposure or competition.
In a context where many public figures are pressured to keep commitments despite personal difficulties, his decision has been positively valued by followers and members of the Dominican community abroad, especially in cities such as New York, Miami and Lawrence (Massachusetts), where a large Dominican population resides.
His message makes it clear that his link to the community is not broken, but transformed: “This decision does not mean goodbye, but a transition to new opportunities where I will be able to continue to contribute and grow.”
A leading figure among the 36 candidates
Martinez was part of the group of 36 official candidates selected to compete for the national title that grants the Dominican representation in Miss Universe 2025.
Her profile attracted attention from the beginning, not only for her elegance and academic preparation, but also for her commitment to social causes linked to the Dominican immigrant community in the United States.
His departure comes just a few days before the final gala, scheduled for Sunday, August 10 at the Eduardo Brito National Theater in Santo Domingo.
The event will be under the artistic direction and production of renowned creative René Brea.
The broadcast will be live on Color Visión, channel 9, and will also be available via streaming for the international audience, especially the Dominican community abroad.
