Fátima Bosch’s crowning as Miss Universe 2025 has focused a new spotlight on the young Tabascan and her family. The Bosch-Fernández household has become a significant topic on social media following her international victory.
Hailing from a family noted for its political and social influence in Tabasco, the 25-year-old has often credited her home as the driving force behind her career.
During her time in Thailand, Bosch expressed deep pride. “I am very proud of my family,” she said, “they are honest, hardworking people who only do their best for others.” She emphasized their fundamental role in her journey to success in the fashion world.
Her closest relatives include her father, mother, and brother, all with notable backgrounds.
Bernardo Bosch Hernández, her father, is a central figure in both her professional life and the family structure. An engineer with extensive experience at Petróleos Mexicanos (Pemex), he serves as Director General of Exploration and Production, a strategic position within the state-owned company.
His role involves overseeing operational areas, institutional liaison, and critical projects for the nation’s energy development, according to Milenio. His career also includes coordinating the PACMA program, which strengthened Pemex’s ties with local communities and promoted environmental protection.
Despite his high-level responsibilities, Bernardo is also known for his active family presence. He remains involved in Brahman cattle ranching, a Bosch family tradition in Tabasco, and participates in local social causes.
Vanessa Fernández Balboa, Fátima’s mother, largely remains out of the media spotlight. However, her influence on Fátima’s life is profound. Recognized in Tabasco for her social and cultural contributions, she has been key to the new Miss Universe’s personal and emotional growth.
Fátima has repeatedly stated that her mother is her greatest example, particularly for how she balanced family life with the values instilled in her children.
After Fátima’s triumph, her mother shared her sentiments with the press. “You see a strong, self-assured, dedicated woman, but I see the girl who for a long time feared she wouldn’t achieve anything in life. And now she is Miss Universe.”
Fátima’s older brother, Bernardo Bosch Fernández, has also garnered attention. The 28-year-old Industrial Engineer holds a master’s in Governance and Political Communication from George Washington University.
Bernardo went viral after the pageant, noted for his striking physique and elegant social media presence. He balances his academic career with active political involvement in his home state.
Since 2024, Infobae reports that Bernardo serves as a columnist for SM Noticias. There, he analyzes social and political challenges facing the country.
