It shared that the contestant's sister, Dr. Phylicia Henry-Samuels, as well as their mother Maureen Henry are currently by her side in hospital.

"Gabby isn't doing as well as we would have hoped, but the hospital continues to treat her accordingly," Dr. Henry-Samuels said.

At the time, doctors said she would need to remain in the ICU for a minimum of seven days as they continued to monitor her and provide special care.

The Miss Universe Jamaica Organisation has asked fans to keep Gabby in their prayers, requesting the "public and social media users to avoid sharing negative comments, misinformation, or speculation that may cause further distress to the family.

"Our primary focus remains on Gabrielle's recovery and the well-being of her loved ones. We kindly request continued compassion, sensitivity, and privacy as the family navigates this challenging period."

The latest update on Henry, which came over a week ago, from Miss Universe organiser Raúl Rocha, did not disclose any further details about her injuries.
