Speaking about her “amazing journey” so far this year, Ms Harper won the Miss Great Britain Classic Ayrshire in June, qualifying her for the Miss Great Britain final in Leicester.
She said: “What’s to be will be, but I’m very excited. I realise this could make history because I’m over 70, and I don’t believe it’s been known before.
“It’s given me a real boost in my life; to say it doesn’t matter what age you are, people can do wonderful things.
Ms Harper said for her, the competition “really isn’t just about the winning”, but that she is going into it “with a positive head”.
