Just like any person, Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray also experiences low moments in life.

And just recently, she got real on Instagram about how she's had a challenging past few weeks.

“When I find myself feeling down and overwhelmed; where things are out of my control, it helps to remind myself that the only person I can control is myself, to count all the things I have to be grateful for and to plan and look forward to the dawn of a new day,” she said.

“So if you're feeling down in the dumps, you're never alone. Situations and life are tough...but so are you. #KeepCalmAndLavaWalk”

It can be recalled that early this month, the reigning Miss Universe was fat-shamed by a Thai beauty queen. Since then, Catriona has not addressed the issue but spoke about body shaming and bullying on Twitter.

This goes to show that Catriona is just like the rest of us. So, keep calm and lava walk no matter where you go!
