Mrs World Singapore Finalist Left Abusive Marriage With $600 & A Newborn — Now She’s Rebuilt Her Life From Scratch

Still, she chose to walk away.

“Going into single motherhood because I believed walking away was the right decision,” read one of her captions.

“But this is not a story about losing,” she added. “This is a story about rebuilding.”

Stephanie looked back on the woman she once was — someone who “cried herself to sleep” in 2021 — and how far she has come.  

The years that followed were anything but easy. She worked three jobs for years and survived on just a few hours of sleep a day.

“I worked really hard because I know I have a little girl depending on me,” she shared. “She became the reason I kept going.”

Slowly, things began to change.

She bought her first car, then her first home. She started her own business and eventually got her own office. Along the way, she continued upgrading herself, even pursuing a degree part-time.

“I rebuilt my confidence. I rebuilt myself,” she said.

“This Mother’s Day, I’m proud of the woman I became.”
