Nawat Itsaragrisil apologised, but not to Miss Mexico Fatima Bosch
While questioning Miss Mexico Fatima Bosch at the sash ceremony on why she did not join a social media shoot, Nawat called her ‘dumb’. He flung even more insults and threatened the other beauty queens. The whole ordeal was live-streamed by the Miss Universe Thailand organisation. As a result, Nawat’s tirade and disrespect against Fatima and the other beauty queens became viral. A massive backlash followed, with celebrities also condemning the spat.
