UPDATE: Mrs. World Arrested For Allegedly Injuring Mrs. Sri Lanka After Ripping Crown From Her Head On Stage

Welp, Mrs. World 2020 winner Caroline Jurie found herself in the slammer after she allegedly injured another contestant during the Mrs. Sri Lanka beauty pageant on Sunday.

As we previously reported, during the ceremony, Jurie, who won Mrs. Sri Lanka in 2019 and went on to win the Mrs. World title, snatched the crown from 2021 winner Pushpika De Silva. As CBS News reports, Jurie claimed De Silva couldn’t win Mrs. Sri Lanka because she was divorced. However, the competition organizer and De Silva later confirmed she is in fact still married.

Following the incident, Mrs De Silva also took to social media to reveal that she suffered pain on her skull when the crown was snatched from her head and has to be treated for injuries, according to BBC News. She also said she would be taken legal action against her for the way she was treated. Police spokesman Ajith Rohana told BBC News that “Police arrested Caroline Jurie and model Chula Padmendra over Sunday’s incident on charges of simple hurt and criminal cause,” Rohana said. The two are set to appear in court on April 19.

“We are disappointed,” Jayasinghe told BBCNews after the incident. “It was a disgrace how Caroline Jurie behaved on the stage and the Mrs. World organization has already begun an investigation on the matter.”
