Following her recent announcement to relinquish the Miss USA 2023 title, Noelia Voigt’s resignation letter has been made public.

According to the letter obtained by NBC News in May 9, Voigt alledged that the pageant’s CEO mishandled a sexual harassment incident and promoted a toxic work experience.

“There is a toxic work environment within the Miss USA organization that at best, is poor management and worst, is bullying and harassment”, Voigt, 24, wrote in a letter.

“This started soon after winning the title of Miss USA 2023”.

On May 6, Voigt shared an Instagram post revealing her decision to step down from the prestigious title, citing a need to prioritise her mental well being.

Voigt posted a detailed message on social media, followed by caption that read in part, ” I understand this news may be surprising to many. Remember to always prioritize your physical and mental health, and never compromise your well being”.
