Hannah Neeleman Returns To The Pageant

Hannah Neeleman is once again on the pageant stage. 

Online, she's known as Ballerina Farm, and is a Julliard-trained dancer, entrepreneur, and mother to eight. 

She left her family's Utah farm in order to attend the Mrs. American pageant. Last year, she won the title and is set to crown this year's winner. 

She recently shared some behind-the-scenes pictures, showcasing a chic black sleeveless dress for the interview day. It came with a bubble hemline and a pleated skirt. 

She paired the dress with black heels and a sparkly pageant crown. 

She brought her daughter Flora Jo along, wearing her in a front-facing carrier. 

"Flora coming to work with mama," she captioned a picture, which showed her wearing a "Mrs. American" sash over the carrier.


She also showed off a more formal outfit, a champagne halter dress, as well as another white beaded gown, with one sheer sleeve and a neckline cutout detail. 

She reminisced on her time competing, which she did while 20 weeks pregnant with Flora Jo. 

"A night I will never forget. ✨. This year has flown by. Heading to Las Vegas next week to crown my successor! I was 20 weeks pregnant with miss Flora Jo during this pageant. ♥️"

She can also be seen wearing a sequin mini dress, complete with a blue tasselled skirt, a royal blue one-piece swimsuit, and a ball gown, complete with a halter neckline and white cape-like detail. 

Hannah competed in the Mrs. World pageant in January this year, 12 days after welcoming her daughter.

She's also gained a following on social media, dubbing her a "trad wife." 


She reacted saying she doesn't "necessarily identify" with this title "because we are traditional in the sense that it’s a man and a woman, we have children, but I do feel like we’re paving a lot of paths that haven’t been paved before.”

Daniel, her husband said, "We were already together, doing what we were doing. And then ‘trad wife’ came along. We can’t help it. This is what we are. If we’re trad dad, trad wife, so be it.”

Hannah revealed on Instagram that she and Daniel have "many dreams to accomplish."

“Together we have built a business from scratch. We’ve brought eight children into this world and have prioritized our marriage all along the way. We are co-parents, co-CEOs, co-diaper changers, kitchen cleaners and decision makers.”
