Sarah has spoken out about her divorce after staying silent for a very long time. In an Instagram Q&A with her followers, the influencer decided to keep it real.

“Divorce is not easy, it feels like losing a best friend, It’s like mourning a best friend’s death to you but also witnessing that same friend’s life through a window without you," she said.

Sarah also spoke about the stigma for women that comes with being a divorcee. She said that one will lose all their married friends and there's a constant unwanted pity following you everywhere you go.

"The feeling of being alone sucks and not to mention the men that have been waiting on the side-lines for the opportunity to take advantage to prey on your vulnerability," said Sarah.

The influencer also advised her followers not to stay in toxic marriages and to walk away if it is necessary.
