"I am now ready to hand over the crown," Jurie said in a video statement on Instagram on Friday as she removed a silver crown from her head.

SRI LANKA WINNER SAYS SHE SUFFERED HEAD INJURY AFTER HER CROWN WAS TAKEN FROM HER NATIONAL TV.

Sri Lanka 2020 Caroline Jurie (2-L) removes the crown of 2021 winner Pushpika de Silva (C).

"I know I burst a few bubbles, created conversation and even a discussion about class and values that a queen wearing [the] crown should stand for," Jurie acknowledged, but insisted that she acted on behalf of the values she stands for.

During the televised pageant, Jurie took the crown from De Silva and place it on the runner up, prompting De Silva to walk off stage.

However, in a Facebook post about the incident De Silva noted that, although she is separated, she is "an un divorced woman" and therefore feels that the crown was improperly and "insultfully" taken from her. 

Police spokesman Ajith Rohana previously said that police had received a complaint from De Silva claiming her head was injured.
