During the Miss Teen Aruba International 2025 pageant held Sunday evening at Paseo Herencia Ballroom, a special moment was set aside to crown one of Aruba’s brightest young stars—Elise Heronimo.
The talented and radiant young girl has been shining in pageants from a very early age. In 2022, she was named 1st Runner-Up in the Little Miss Beauty Aruba competition. In 2023, she earned the title of Mini Model Aruba and stepped onto the international stage, where she won “Miss Social Media” and was named Top Mini Model World.
That same year, Elise returned to the Little Miss Beauty Aruba stage and swept nearly every award, winning the main title along with “Little Miss Photogenic,” “Little Miss Talent,” “Little Miss Best Dressed,” “Little Miss Model,” “Little Miss Social Media,” and “Little Miss Discipline.”
Currently serving as the “Cultural Gem” of the Gucci Dancers for 2025, Elise has now added another milestone to her young career by being crowned Little Miss Nuestra Belleza Aruba 2025.
The crown and sash were presented by Briannah Arrindell and Darienne Lampe, with Briannah officially placing the crown during the emotional coronation ceremony.
Elise will now spend the coming months preparing to represent Aruba at the Miss Nuestra Belleza international pageant to be held in the Dominican Republic this October.
