Sheynnis Palacios withdraws from Top Chef VIP 5 for medical reasons

Sheynnis Palacios, the former Miss Universe 2023, has withdrawn from the fifth season of the culinary competition Top Chef VIP due to medical reasons. The Nicaraguan model stated that while she wished to continue in the competition, she could no longer compromise her health.

Palacios revealed that a complication involving one of her breast implants caused intense pain and physical limitations, making it difficult to perform tasks such as cooking. Following medical evaluations, she announced that she must undergo surgery and is traveling to Orlando, Florida, to begin her medical treatment and recovery process.

In a message to her fans, Palacios expressed sadness over her departure but emphasized her desire to be remembered as a loyal friend and a representative who proudly carries the name of Nicaragua.
