Kylie passed the crown to Kevin in Tokyo in November 2017.

Kevin has been fulfilling her duties as Miss International, while Kylie continues to advocate for mental health awareness among other things. 

 

My online support group, Mental Health Matters, has been holding free monthly seminars and discussions on mental health for the past months. Yesterday we were invited by the ASDP in QC together with other support groups, to speak on mental health. Thank you all for having us! ?? (Schedule of talks, support group link in bio ??) Speaker for today and thank you: Daddy
