Police said Kryst jumped from a Manhattan apartment building and was pronounced dead at the scene Sunday morning.
“In devastation and great sorrow, we share the passing of our beloved Cheslie,” the statement said.
Kryst, a former Division I athlete and North Carolina attorney, won the Miss USA pageant in May, 2019, and competed in the Miss Universe pageant that year. When Kryst was crowned, it marked more than a personal triumph: It meant that for the first time, three Black women were the reigning Miss USA, Miss Teen USA and Miss America.
University of South Carolina mourned the former student-athlete, calling her “a woman of many talents.” Kryst also held an MBA from Wake Forest University.
