MeghanIt's been over three months since I last saw my husband, Simon. And since then, each time I wake up in the morning, he is the first thing on my mind. Today being our third anniversary, I had little faith that just maybe he might put our long-standing differences aside to honour our day. I tapped my phone to check if I had missed any calls nor texts from him. A feeling of sadness mixed with emptiness engulfed me on seeing zero notifications from him.

I couldn't wait to talk about how we spent time creating the pieces and how much of an amazing partner Henry is. Meeting Henry was a turning point in my life as much as he was a business partner, he is also a good friend to me and a doting uncle to my small bundle of joy, Mason."You look beautiful," Celine sitting beside me all glammed and poised, complimented me, winking at me. "Let's take a selfie, I need to show your fans what you are up to." She held up her phone in a selfie, a wide smile on her face. I chuckled, feeling grateful for her support.
