She stated that for three years, she used to tell people that she was 22-years-old instead of her actual age.
“There was a time someone asked me how old I was, and for about three years I kept saying 22, Then one day I calculated it and realised I was already 25. I was depressed for a few days because my mind couldn’t process it. It was mental for three years I didn’t know my age.” She said.
