Th 30-year-old, who was invited by the president of the opulent Miss Universe Vietnam pageant, won the hearts of many in 2019 when she was crowned as the then reigning queen.

Despite her reign having come to an end close to five years ago, she has been described as a person who continues to make a strong impression on feminism and gender equality.

The pageant comes as Vietnam reels from the impact of Typhoon Yagi, which left at least 197 people dead, 128 missing and about 800 others injured.

South Africans have shared their congratulatory messages for Tunzi on X.
