Jayathi De Silva has been crowned as Miss Universe Sri Lanka 2016.  She succeeds Avanti Marianne as Miss Universe Sri Lanka title-holder.  She will now represent the island nation at Miss Universe 2016 which will be most probably held in the Philippines in January 2017.  Jayathi was 1st Runner-up in Miss World Sri Lanka 2015.

Sri Lanka made a spectacular debut in Miss Universe with Maureen Neliya Hingert in the year 1955.  She finished as the second runner-up.  However, since then the country has not achieved a placement in semi-finals of Miss Universe.  Can Jayathi De Silva bring a placement to the country in Miss Universe?
