The current Miss Zimbabwe has been stripped of her title on the grounds of 'immoral behaviour' after naked photographs of her appeared on the instant messaging service WhatsApp.
Emily Kachote, 25, broke rules that insist beauty queens must never pose nude, the pageant board said in a statement amid claims the model's former lover deliberately leaked the images.
In a bizarre twist, Miss Kachote's predecessor Thabiso Phiri, 22, was also stripped of the Miss Zimbabwe title - which automatically enters the winner into the Miss World competition - after nude photographs she had sent to her boyfriend were leaked and went viral.
In a statement, the Miss Zimbabwe pageant board said Miss Kachote 'violated the rules and regulations governing the pageant', referring to nude images of that appeared on Whatsapp, according to a local tabloid newspaper.
'Winners of the Miss World Zimbabwe beauty pageant whether a title holder or runner-up must not have posed nude professionally or socially in all forms of media,' the organisers said.
'Being in a relationship, sexual advances to anyone and any behaviour categorised as immoral by the Miss Zimbabwe Trust is grounds for instant disqualification and dethronement,' they added.
