Congratulations, Mrs. Universe

Ella Markovsky (pictured) was crowned Mrs. Universe 2022-23 in Las Vegas. Previously, she was named Mrs. Texas Classic Universe 2021, and then represented Texas in the 2021 Mrs. Classic Universe pageant where she was named a runner-up finalist. Ella, a wife, mother, and entrepreneur, was introduced to the world of pageants by her friend Hajera Naeem, a beauty queen with multiple titles, and says pageants feel very natural to her. When she is not competing, Ella is an event planner working with celebrities and socialites, and she is actively involved in organizations that focus on raising awareness for domestic violence victims.
