Miss North Carolina USA 2026, Brittany Boltinhouse, is stepping down after old tweets surfaced — including racial slurs from a now-deleted account — sparking controversy. While officials say the ousting stems from those posts, Boltinhouse insists it’s about her conservative Christian beliefs and faith-based views. Just 27, she’d only recently won her crown and was preparing for nationals. A proud member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, she calls her pageant journey a “nightmare” but says she’s resilient, embracing the spotlight and criticism. She’s quick to note she’s only been competing since last year — making this whirlwind exit even more unexpected.
