She recounted how online backlash pushed her over the edge. “One day, I just picked up my phone and went live. I was overwhelmed. People were accusing me of things I didn’t do. I had just lost my mum, my marriage ended, politics didn’t go well, and I still had to show up and work. I have kids I’m taking care of on my own. And people still wanted to drag me?”
For the first time in a long while, she broke down. “I cried for weeks. I was mentally drained,” she admitted.
