Shalimar Rivera, who participated in Univision's Nuestra Belleza Latina competition in 2012, is looking for several members of her family after she lost contact with them after Hurricane María's devastating passage through her native Puerto Rico.

It's about his dad, Concepción Rivera; his mother, Luelvy Rodríguez; his sister, Yahaira Rivera; and his brother, Dave Rivera. All were in the municipality of Guayama during the passage of the cyclone.

I know that we are all on the island with personal situations and sad because of everything that is happening, but if anyone knows anything about Highway 179 in Guayama or something about Olympus, please tell me that I can't find my parents and they say that the river took all that 179”, said the model shocked in a video she shared on Instagram.

Rivera said he has not heard from his loved ones since 10 am local time on Wednesday.

“There are two brothers who are in danger with my parents. They were not with my parents at the time of the hurricane because they were working, "he told People En Español. "The despair, the anguish, the helplessness I have I cannot explain."

The passing of the catastrophic cyclone has decimated communications on the island and left practically all its 3.4 million inhabitants without a storm of this intensity for almost a century.

In fact, Governor Ricardo Rosselló warned that it would be months before the island returned to normal.
