Jamaica's Strength Shines After Tough Times
Jamaica is proving its strength after facing multiple challenges recently, including a hurricane and a serious accident involving their Miss Universe contestant.
Miss Jamaica's Accident
The Miss Jamaica organization posted a message about healing and strength, which seems to refer to more than just the hurricane.
Gabrielle Henry, Miss Jamaica 2025, fell off the stage during a Miss Universe preliminary event in Bangkok, Thailand, on November 19. She was unable to compete in the final round on November 21. The organization later shared that Henry's sister and mother are with her in Thailand. Doctors say she needs to stay in the ICU for at least seven days.
Update from Jamaica's Minister of Culture
On November 29, Jamaica's Minister of Culture shared an update. She said Henry is still in the ICU but is in good spirits. The family is hopeful and waiting for doctors to clear her to travel back to Jamaica.
Controversy in the Pageant
However, it's not all smooth sailing. Miss Haiti said that after Henry's fall, a pageant staff member blamed Henry for not paying attention. This has raised questions about how the pageant handles such incidents.
Jamaica's Strength
Despite all this, Jamaica is showing its strength. The country is known for its vibrant culture and strong community spirit. This is just another example of how Jamaica faces challenges head-on.
