Former Miss South Africa Zozibini Tunzi has paid tribute to her late friend and ex-Miss USA 2019 Cheslie Kryst.
Tunzi headed to Instagram and uploaded a video showing her hugging her friend, Cheslie who died in January last year.
According to media reports at the time, outlets such as the New York Post reported that a woman had jumped to her death from a midtown high-rise building.
Zozibini became friends with Cheslie after sharing a luxury apartment in Manhattan with the late pageant queen during the year of her reign as Miss Universe 2019.
She penned a lengthy post to caption her video and urged her social media followers to consider seeking mental health.
“That one time I arrived and we were matching because of synergy baby! I can’t believe today marks a year since we lost you,” she wrote.
“Just like you wanted, we will always take a moment to remind people to seek help and take care of their mental health always. Hope you’re resting easy queen. We love you forever and always my friend.”
Following Cheslie’s passing on January 30 last year, Tunzi said she is still devastated by the death and the passing came as a surprise.
“Cheslie, my friend, I am devastated. I didn’t sleep a wink, caught in between not believing the news and trying to make sense of what is happening,” she added.
“You were supposed to send me photos of the outfit you were going to wear to a wedding this past Saturday and all the details that happened at the event. You took me by surprise, queen. I am not ready for a world you don’t exist in.
“I hope you are resting easy now, love. You meant everything to so many people and you forever will. You made a mark in this world and touched so many lives.
“We celebrate your life. I love you so, so much my forever friend and forever Miss USA.”
