Miss Universe South Africa 2020 Natasha Joubert, through her social media on Wednesday, announced that she got infected with covid-19 and is recovering in quarantine. She uploaded a picture lying on her bed and reminded her fans to stay healthy.

She wrote, “It's 14 o'clock and still wearing pajamas. Last week I tested positive for Covid. Missed Christmas time with my family, but there are still many things to be grateful for.” Natasha is also using her time to contemplate what is really precious in life.

Natasha is currently preparing for her stint at Miss Universe 2020. After winning second runner-up position at Miss South Africa 2020, Natasha has been giving her best efforts to perfect her walk, her speech and style for the international stage. “I feel incredibly honoured and humbled to walk in the footsteps of the women who came before me. They’ve left a clear open path to show to any South African woman that there is no ceiling to what she can dream and envision for her life”, she said on being given the opportunity.

The 22-year-old Natasha hails from Centurion, Tshwane, Gauteng and is a Public Relations Officer at RFJ Inc. Attorneys and founder and owner of Natalia Jefferys (Pty) Ltd. She has a B.Com Marketing Management Graduate from Boston City Campus.
