Why our Miss Universe could be stripped of crown in finance scandal

A petition calling for Australia’s Miss Universe contestant to stand down, is gathering steam.

Moraya Wilson, who is the current Miss Universe Australia, is the daughter of two bankrupt property developers whose companies owe more than $45 million to creditors.

News.com.au has cited Australian Securities and Investments Commission reports that found companies run by Wilson’s parents, Anton and Melinda Wilson, owe the money to creditors following multiple company liquidations, including approximately $21 million to the tax office. Since then, it has emerged that Moraya is a director of ten similar companies which ASIC is seeking to have struck off the business register.

In this extra episode of The Briefing, we're joined by Alex Turner-Cohen, a finance reporter at news.com.au who filed today’s exclusive.
