A Picture Speaks A Thousand Words: The Fall Of South African Olympian Pistorius

Tonight, Olympic athlete Pistorius faces his third night in police custody, accused of murdering his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.

The covergirl was shot by her boyfriend in the early hours of Valentine’s Day on Thursday.

Pistorius has been placed on suicide watch in custody.

Tonight, the late Steenkamp will appear in a pre-recorded celebrity reality TV show in South Africa, only two days after her death shocked the world.

The 29-year-old will make a posthumous prime-time debut in Tropika Island of Treasure which is expected to draw a vast audience.

The reality show, shot on location in Jamaica, features the model and law graduate as well as several local personalities competing for prize money.

Producers decided not to shelve the show, instead casting its broadcast as a tribute to Steenkamp.

"She was happy, healthy, beautiful and vibrant and that's the way she should be remembered," said executive producer Samantha Moon said in a statement.

In an earlier statement Moon said the decision to broadcast Tropika Island of Treasure 5 was taken after "much deliberation."

"This week's episode will be dedicated to Reeva's memory."
