Miss Universe Colombia, Daniela Toloza, is celebrating many things in her life. Following her crowning as Colombia's pick for Miss Universe, Toloza has shared news of her engagement. She shared her joy and excitement in a lengthy and emotional post, showing off her engagement ring and an estimated wedding date.
Toloza shared the news on her Instagram, alongside three images of herself and her ring. In the photos, she wears a matching shirt and shorts outfit made out of white knitted patterns. In the post's caption, she revealed that her partner, whom she didn't identify nor shared any photos of, accompanied her as she worked hard for the Miss Universe Colombia title. "I said Yes!!!" she captioned the post. "In every one of life's processes there are people that push you, support you, and motivate you to achieve your goals. For me, on this project towards Miss Universe Colombia, this person has always been by my side. In the days where there was no motivation, in the moments where hope was lost, he was there, accompanying me in silence."
"After nine years where we've spent the most beautiful and darkest moments together, where we've overcome life's biggest obstacles, I confirm that there is no stronger feeling than love, which is capable of transforming it all." She concluded the post by sharing how important it is for women to be able to achieve their dreams without sacrificing their "personal happiness." "To Miss Universe, thanks for allowing this to come true."
"We'll have a wedding in 2026!"
