Miss Dominican Republic stripped of her crown... after it's revealed she’s a Mrs

Dethroned: Carlina Duran had her Miss Dominican Republic crown taken away as it was revealed that she was married in 2009
Upset: Mrs Duran said in a statement read at a Wednesday night news conference that she had never lived with her husband
The woman recently named Miss Dominican Republic was stripped of her crown because she is actually a Mrs.The rules state that those vying for the crown must be single, and that is a problem for the recent winner, Carlina Duran. Magaly Febles, director of the Miss Domincan Republic contest, said Tuesday it had been discovered that Mrs Duran was married in 2009.


To complicate matters, Mrs Duran said in a statement read at a Wednesday night news conference that she had never lived with her husband.‘In my daily life, I remained like a single woman, without thinking of myself neither materially nor spiritually married,’ said the statement, read by her lawyer.
The statement also said the marriage was brief, and the couple had begun annulment proceedings. The statement didn't specify whether the annulment was finalized. Mrs Duran's statement called her decision to hide her marriage from the contest organizers the ‘fruit of my inexperience.’
