Katrina Hodge

As part-time model, at the finals for the 2008 Miss England held on July 18, 2008, she placed fourth and won Miss Eco girl.
She was quickly signed up by lingerie firm La Senza, Originally she was the runner up in the 2009 Miss England competition, but became Miss England on November 7, 2009 when the pageant winner Rachel Christie stepped down after she was involved in a fight. She only had 48 hours to prepare before taking part in the 59th Miss World pageant held in South Africa.
As Miss England Hodge managed to persuade the Organisers to remove the Bikini round from the Miss England competition. This she said would change peoples views of beauty pageants, from being just about looks and more about the girl. Hodge said "To be Miss England you don't have to be the girl who looks best in a swimsuit, thankfully it's much more than that, it's about being a good role model". The Bikini Round of the 2010 competition was removed and replaced with a sportswear round. Given six months leave by the Army, she is presently the front person for dating site Uniform Dating, which specifically aims to help military personnel find love.
