A woman who spent years sleeping rough as a teenager has turned her life around to win a beauty pageant.
Astrud Theadora Caldwell, 21, was kicked out of home aged 16 while in a violent relationship with her ex-boyfriend, which had led to arguments with her family.
Until she was 18 she then lived on the streets and in homeless hostels, reports the Daily Record, and would spend every night looking for places to stay overnight with her then-partner.
