“There was a video on social media that some women mocked me that I don’t have a husband.
“My God. I see all the insults on social media. I see all the posts that show how I left one husband for another one.
“I cried, cried, and cried. I just told myself, you need to speak to someone about this. You can’t continue like this.
I told myself that I needed to speak, I reached out, and I started speaking. After then, I felt better. Things I couldn’t tell people out there. I spoke to my therapist and I was better.
“So, I want to advise you out there. It’s very important for you to speak up. You need it. You can’t take everything. I’m a very strong person now. I have that strength to face any challenges in life.
“After the whole blackmailing, I got tougher. I started putting the story about my life into writing, even though I almost lost it mentally, but I used the mockery to produce a film.”
