On Sunday (IST), Harnaaz Sandhu took her final walk as the outgoing Miss Universe before crowning USA’s R’bonney Gabriel as her successor. Dressed in black, Harnaaz Sandhu held back tears as she blew kisses in the air and even tripped on stage before recovering quickly.
During the emotional moment, her voiceover played, “I was 17 years old when I first took the stage and since then becoming Miss Universe was my goal. I’ve been given the megaphone on a worldwide stage to present the topic of menstrual equity before world leaders asking them to keep this conversation ongoing.”
