Crowned Miss World Canada China-born Anastasia Lin, a University Of Toronto theatre major, told Canadian media that her dad's recent text messages made her worry for his safety.
Her father who still lives in China's Hunan province had asked her not to speak out anymore about human rights issues in China and threatened to stop giving her "support" should she continue doing so.
Anastasia Lin had spoken about the persecution of religious minorities in China during the pageant run-up.
CTV News and The Globe And Mail reported that she said that her dad had told her that Chinese security police had threatened him over her outspoken views at the pageant.
