Miss Universe Jamaica 2025 Dr Gabrielle Henry.
Miss Universe Jamaica 2025 Dr Gabrielle Henry experienced a fall from the main stage during the evening gown round of the preliminary competition, ahead of the Miss Universe Finals on Friday in Thailand.
A statement from the Miss Universe Jamaica Organisation said that Dr Henry “was rushed to the Paolo Rangsit Hospital, where medical professionals are attending to her care and have advised that she is not suffering from any life-threatening injuries. However, they continue to conduct tests to ensure her full recovery”.
In the joint statement, national co-directors Mark McDermoth and Karl Williams asked everyone to “stay upbeat, lift her in prayer, and send positive thoughts as she receives the necessary medical care”.
In an interview with The Gleaner on the weekend, an upbeat Dr Henry said that she was enjoying being in Thailand.
“I’m doing well and I’m appreciative of all that this experience has been offering. It’s truly remarkable to be amongst 120 amazing delegates representing their countries, and to have the opportunity to experience Thai culture and hospitality,” Dr Henry said.
“Thailand is a vibrant country with people who exude warmth and kindness, and most of all, who love to smile, just as I do. I truly feel at home. The sisterhood has been strong, and each of the ladies has their unique personality traits that set them apart. It’s been great getting to know them!” she added.
Miss Universe 2025, the 74th instalment of the pageant, is scheduled to be held at the Impact Challenger Hall in Pak Kret, Nonthaburi, Thailand, on November 21. It will be carried live on RushPrime. (Jamaica Gleaner)
