HANNELIE VAN WYK
MRS. CLASSIQUE GLOBE 2024
The Mrs. Classique Globe, a vital part of the Mrs. Globe network, continues to redefine the standards of beauty and achievement for women globally, especially those stepping into the most empowering chapters of their lives—celebrating women who are 45 years young and beyond.
My journey through the pageant world has been one of inspiration and empowerment, echoing Mrs. Globe’s commitment to uplifting women at all stages of life while celebrating individuality, resilience, and shared success.
I extend my deepest gratitude to the sponsors and organizers of the Mrs. Globe pageants and celebrate the support system that has enabled me to achieve such a remarkable feat.
Together, we have demonstrated the elegance and strength of Maltese women, and I am excited to witness Malta’s continued rise on the global stage!
In 2024, I had the privilege of guiding and supporting an extraordinary delegate from Malta, Lana Bowden, who earned the prestigious title of Mrs. European Nations Globe 2024 in Athens. As the official Mrs. Malta Globe Ambassador, I was honored to personally invite the Ambassador of Malta to Greece, Hon. Joseph Cuschieri, to join us in celebrating Lana’s incredible success.
Seeing Lana crowned as Mrs. European Nations 2024 was an emotional and proud moment—not just for her, but for our director Ekaterina Camilleri, myself, and all of Malta. This remarkable victory marked the second consecutive win for Malta, following my own triumph in 2023. Watching Lana shine on that stage exemplified the power of determination and the significance of empowering one another.
Together, we have demonstrated the elegance and strength of Maltese women, and I am excited to witness Malta’s continued rise on the global stage.
MALTA
“Malta is where my heart found its home”
Living in Malta for almost ten years has been an incredibly meaningful chapter in my life. This island, rich in character and warmth, has become my true home—a place where my son has grown up and where I’ve found deep connections within its welcoming community. Its breathtaking landscapes and timeless traditions have shaped not only my daily life but also my perspective on what it means to truly belong.
As an ambassador for Malta and the Mrs. Globe organization, I take great pride in highlighting the island’s unique charm, strength, and cultural treasures. It’s a privilege to showcase its beauty and share its story with the world. This role holds a special place in my heart, as it’s not just about representing Malta but honoring a home that has embraced my family and me with such generosity and kindness.
AUSTRIA
As part of the Mrs. Globe organization, I am honored to take on the leadership role for Mrs. Austria Globe. Representing Malta while working with Austria brings together two countries that deeply inspire me—Malta, where I’ve built a rewarding life, and Austria, a nation of elegance and warmth.
“Bringing Malta and Austria Together to Empower Women and Celebrate Bold Dreams”
My mission is to inspire women from both nations to embrace their uniqueness, step forward confidently, and shine globally. This role is about fostering connections, building self-belief, and celebrating the bold dreams of extraordinary women. By uniting Malta and Austria, I hope to create collaboration and shared pride, proving what we can achieve together.
