Theilvig is the first Danish woman to win Miss Universe and also the first to place after Žaklina Šojić in Miss Universe 2007. Theilvig's victory marked Denmark's second win in any of the Big Four international beauty pageants, following Catharina Svensson in Miss Earth 2001.
She had previously placed as the second runner-up at Miss Denmark 2022. She also represented Denmark at Miss Grand International 2022, gaining placement in the top twenty.[1][2] Accordingly, she is the first winner to use the Light of Infinity golden pearl crown unveiled by the Miss Universe Organization that same year.

As a professional dancer, Victoria has garnered many accolades, and now, she aims to become a lawyer. Prior to becoming Miss Universe, she regularly advocated for mental health support, supported animal rights causes, and worked as a beauty entrepreneur.
