2 days after Reeva Steenkamp was shot and killed by her double amputee Olympian boyfriend, Oscar Pistorius, the 30-year-old model made her reality television debut on the show "Tropika Island of Treasure." The program was filmed in Jamaica last year and aired this past Saturday night in Steenkamp's homeland of South Africa by the South African Broadcasting Corporation. A video of the broadcast has been made available and features the late model and law school graduate "signing off" from the show and saying she has "no regrets:"

"I don't have any regrets. .... I think the way that you go out, not just your journey in life, but the way that you go out -- you make your exit -- is so important. You either made an impact in a positive way or a negative way. But just maintain integrity and maintain class."

Pistorius was arrested and charged in the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp this Valentine's Day. He immediately went to court and during his Friday appearance the 26-year-old "Blade Runner" broke down crying when the judge brought up whether or not to televise the trial. The decision shall be made tomorrow. Oscar Pastorius is most likely going to be charged with "premeditated murder." His family and friends who were present during the hearing were also openly weeping. 

MStars News previously reported on Steenkamp's murder, stating:

Reports confirm that Reeva Steenkamp, a [29]-year-old model, activist, law graduate, and rising TV star, was found shot dead in her boyfriend's home on Valentine's Day (Thursday, Feb. 14). Steenkamp's boyfriend, South African Olympic and Paralympic track star Oscar Pistorius, was arrested on Thursday for murder charges. Details surrounding the fatal shooting remain unclear, although some reports allege that Steenkamp was attempting to surprise 26-year-old Pistorius for Valentine's Day when he mistook her for a burglar. Police have yet to confirm this story. No other suspects are involved.

 Steenkamp's lifeless body was found at Pistorius' gated community home in Silverlakes, South Africa early Thursday morning. Johannesburg's Talk Radio 702 said Pistorius was believed to have shot his girlfriend in the head and arm, although such circumstances still remain unclear. Police spokeswoman Katlego Mogale stated, "We found a 9 mm pistol at the scene. A 26-year-old man was taken into custody." Pistorius (nicknamed "Blade Runner") is expected to appear in court later Thursday afternoon. Mogale told Agence France-Presse that the victim was allegedly shot four times.
