Miss South Africa 2020, Bianca Schoombee has released a public apology after highly offensive posts, dating back to 2014, were found on her Twitter account on Tuesday night.

A Twitter user uncovered a series of racist and crude social media posts tweeted from the 21-year-old model’s private Twitter account. The Bianca Schoombe Twitter account no longer exists.

In one tweet, the account made reference to the “N-word” and repeatedly used swear words as other controversial statements.

Bianca has since released a statement on social media saying: “I would like to profusely apologise for putting it out into the universe then.”

“Being the person that I am today, I have now dealt with my past by praying,” she added.

Bianca withdrew her Miss SA entry.
