Before her Miss Universe triumph, Bosch secured other significant titles. She first won ‘Flor Tabasco’ in 2018. She then earned the Miss Universe Mexico 2025 title, which led her to the international stage.
Bosch’s path to the crown was notably marked by a public controversy. Prior to the Miss Universe 2025 competition, she faced a challenging encounter.
Reports indicate she was subjected to harsh questioning by Nawarat Itsaragrisil. Itsaragrisil, a director for Miss Grand International and a Miss Universe organizer, allegedly called Bosch “stupid” during their interaction.
