Ashleigh Bedwell

Signing on as your new Miss Missouri USA 2024, I am Ashleigh Bedwell! ✨👑 @ashleighlorene 8 years of hard work, determination and a dream came to fruition yesterday as I was named the new Miss Missouri USA 2024. Words can’t begin to describe the emotions I have felt in the last 24 hours. I am full of gratitude to have been selected to represent the entire state of Missouri on the @missusa stage on August 4th in Hollywood, CA! Thank you to my fiancé, family and friends for never giving up on me or my dreams, even when they seem out of reach. The Vannatta’s (John M. Vannatta Jr.Jason VannattaJennifer Vannatta-FisherKaren Kelly Elliott)for believing in me and making me feel apart of the Vanbros family every year that I came back hoping to secure the title. You are the heartbeat of the organization and keep the girls wanting to come back year after year! To my hometown of Campbell, the Heartland and the entire state of MO, I am proof that small town girls can achieve big things! More thanks to come but just know I am overwhelmed at the love and support I have received. To the MO class of 2024, you were fierce and I am honored to represent each and every one of the amazing women who I competed alongside this weekend. If this is your dream, don’t give up - make it happen!
