She said, “I feel very lucky that I have always had friends and family who have stood by me like a rock.” She further shared, “I have always had great girlfriends to support me. They have been there through my good, bad, and ugly phases. It is very important to have women like that in your life — the ones who uplift you. My girlfriends are the best.
