Gabrielle Henry, the current Miss Universe Jamaica, is back home recovering from major injuries. She got hurt after a bad fall at the international pageant in Thailand. The 28-year-old ophthalmology resident posted her first update since returning to Jamaica, thanking people for their support. She specifically mentioned medical staff in Thailand, the people who helped her travel, and Jamaican officials like Culture Minister Olivia Grange.

Henry fell through an opening in the stage during a preliminary event. Video of the incident spread online, showing her suddenly dropping out of sight. The Miss Universe organization reported her injuries included bleeding in her brain, cuts on her face, and a broken bone. She needed intensive care in a Bangkok hospital before doctors allowed her to fly home. In her statement, she wrote that this difficult time has actually sharpened her sense of purpose rather than dimmed it. She said her main focus now is on healing and eventually returning to her work.

She expressed gratitude for the medical teams monitoring her neurological state after the intracranial hemorrhage. Henry also thanked Vradda Rutnin, the Jamaican Honorary Consul in Thailand, and Arthur Williams, the Jamaican Ambassador to China, for their assistance. She noted the strength she feels from being back on the island, surrounded by national support. The model plans to continue her treatment and rehabilitation locally with help from family and healthcare professionals.
