Mayo native Shauna Sammon was crowned the 2025 London Rose in a selection event held at the Clayton Chiswick Hotel last Friday evening.
Chosen from a group of eleven finalists, Shauna will now proudly represent London at the International Rose of Tralee Festival in County Kerry this coming August.
Upon being announced as the 2025 London Rose, Shauna expressed her excitement, stating:
"Being named the 2025 London Rose is an incredible honour and something I’ll cherish forever. I’m only coming back down to Earth after the most surreal few days! I have had a wonderful experience during the whole London Rose process and met some truly inspiring women on my journey.
"I love my Irish community in London. I have benefited so much from the opportunities it has given me and I’m proud to be London’s ambassador in Tralee.
"I'm excited to meet the 31 other incredible international Roses in August and to share in such a special experience together. I’m equally looking forward to the year ahead, wearing the London Rose sash with pride and getting involved in as many events and community activities as I can.”
