She was thrilled to revisit the iconic place, known as Millennium Dome back then that is significant in her life, with her husband and daughter Maltie Marie. She recalled the time when she won Miss World title 24 years ago and how she managed her falling dress. Expressing excitement she even revealed the secret behind her namaste pose.

She penned a heartwhelmming story on Instagram, writing, "I was crowned Miss World at this arena 24 years ago. It was called the Millennium Dome back then. I’ll never forget my little 18-year-old, excited, nervous, and competitive self, trying to look and be the best I could be. A memory I will never forget from November 30, 2000, is the feeling of balancing on pencil heels with a gorgeous Hemant Trivedi dress that was falling off the entire evening because my body tape would not stay on, as I was sweating so much from nerves. Hence if you google the pictures, after I win, I look like I’m doing a namaste in gratitude but I’m actually desperately trying to keep my dress up. clearly I survived and it was all well at the end.”
