Mrs. Oklahoma American
Chantel Martin
Chantel Martin is a lifelong Oklahoman, devoted wife, proud mom, and title and escrow professional who believes in the power of showing up, serving others, and being true to who you are. She has always believed that success is about more than what we accomplish—it’s about the people we touch and the difference we leave behind. Chantel’s journey has not always been easy. After experiencing postpartum depression, she knows firsthand how difficult it can be to feel like you’re struggling alone. That experience changed the way she saw motherhood, mental health, and the importance of having someone simply remind you that you are not alone. What began as one of the hardest seasons of her life became a passion to speak openly about postpartum depression and advocate for mothers who may be silently struggling. Her journey to the Mrs. Oklahoma American crown is one she never could have imagined. Chantel first wore a crown as Little Miss Oklahoma, and years later, she found herself back on the pageant stage as Mrs. Oklahoma American 2026. For her, this journey has never been just about winning a title. It has been about growth, stepping outside of her comfort zone, believing in herself again, and realizing that dreams truly do not have an expiration date. As Mrs. Oklahoma American, Chantel hopes to use her voice to make a difference—especially for women and mothers who need to know they are seen, heard, and worthy of support. She wants to turn her own experiences into something meaningful and use this opportunity to encourage others to keep going, even when life doesn’t look the way they imagined it would. Chantel believes that sometimes the chapters we never would have chosen become the ones that shape us the most. She is proud of where she has been, grateful for where she is, and excited for where her story is still going.
