Further, she impressed audiences around the world with her infectious personality, runway looks, and hilarious moments both in and out of drag. Her competitors and the viewers instantly felt her absence from the show. However, some queens were glad to no longer have to compete against her.
Unfortunately, Kornbread had to leave the competition of RuPaul’s Drag Race after an ankle injury. RuPaul advised the remaining contestants that the queen wouldn’t return to the competition.

Fellow contestant, Alyssa Hunter, responded with, “SHOCK” and a heartbreaking series of emojis.
Regardless of this decision, the world certainly hasn’t seen the last of Kornbread.
