The Miss Universe Organisation (MUO) says Miss Universe Jamaica 2025 Dr Gabrieele Henry continues to receive specialised medical care in Thailand and will soon return to Jamaica under full medical supervision.
Henry suffered a serious fall through an opening on the stage while performing her walk during the preliminary competition on November 19, 2025, resulting in an intracranial haemorrhage with loss of consciousness, a fracture, facial lacerations and other significant injuries.
She was immediately admitted to intensive care in Bangkok, where she remained in critical condition under constant neurological monitoring, and continues to require 24-hour specialist supervision.
She will return to Jamaica in the coming days, accompanied by a full medical escort team and will be transferred directly to the hospital for continued treatment and recovery.
“From the time the incident took place, the Miss Universe Organisation has stood beside Gabrielle and her family as if she were their own, assuming full and immediate responsibility without hesitation. The organisation has covered all hospital, medical, and rehabilitation expenses in Thailand, as well as the accommodation and living costs for Dr Henry’s mother and sister, who have remained by her side throughout this difficult period,” the organisation said in a statement.
In addition, the Miss Universe Organisation says it’s funding the medically escorted repatriation flight arranged by the hospital and has committed to covering all future medical expenses arising from this incident.
The organisation says the Henry family is deeply grateful to the Miss Universe Organisation for their unwavering compassion, presence, and love shown, as their response so far has gone beyond professional responsibility and reflected devotion and protection of the family.
“Certain media reports suggesting that Dr Henry contributed in any way to the incident are entirely inaccurate. The Miss Universe Organisation has never attributed blame to Dr Henry and confirms that those suggestions are unfounded and do not reflect the facts.
“Dr Henry and her family extend their heartfelt thanks to the people of Jamaica, the Miss Universe community, and supporters worldwide for the overwhelming outpouring of love, prayers, and encouragement,” MUO continued.
