And now she reveals her shapely body in the official Miss England bikini – not forgetting her tiara of course – in her first bikini photoshoot since winning the Miss Surrey title.
Posing confidently poolside in the brief white gem-embossed Miss England bikini which she'll wear in the pageant in July, Chloe appears completely lacking in self-consciousness.

Curves allowed: Chloe Marshall poses confidently in an official Miss England bikini for her first magazine photoshoot
The 17-year-old trainee beautician doesn't look like your average beauty queen. And she couldn't be happier about it.
She said: "It's what I was born to do – posing for the camera. And as I keep saying, I love my body.
"People seem desperate to get me to say that I don't, that deep down I'm not happy and would rather be thin, but the fact is I wouldn't change myself at all.
"Do I have fat days? Of course, but what woman doesn't!"
Chloe beat a host of slimmer hopefuls to be named Miss Surrey earlier this month, and hopes to win the national competition in July.

Winner: Chloe was the first size 16 competitor to win the Miss Surrey title, and will now compete for the Miss England title. She says she is completely happy with her curves and 'loves' her body
The Guildford-born plus-size model weighs 12st 8lb, is 5ft 10in tall and has a 38DD bust.
But although she is the average size for a woman, in the age which has seen the rise of the scarily thin size zero model, she certainly stands out.
Chloe said reaction has been mainly positive, but she admitted in an interview with Hello magazine, that there had been some snide remarks with one writer accusing her of "promoting obesity".
Chloe told Hello: "I'm a size 16, I eat well, I exercise regularly – I jog, swim, and work out with weights.
"What I am promoting is a healthy girl who looks after herself and doesn't try to force her body to be something its not."
The teenager, who has been signed up by the Models Plus agency, said most of her rivals were size eight or ten.
"Everybody thinks you have to be a tall, slim blonde and I'm a curvy brunette," she added.
"I want to show it is possible to be beautiful and not a standard size zero."
