“(The thieves) had heard interviews that I did, getting excited about this jewellery and that jewellery. I truly don’t know if I’d ever feel comfortable wearing jewellery anymore, or wearing real jewellery again,” she said. “My whole life has changed in terms of how I travel and my security. I never thought I would need security staying outside of my door.

“I should have had a security guard outside of my door. Now I have several just for me to be able to sleep at night,” she said.

I’m really proud of everyone around me that’s successful,” she said. “But I’m so happy that my kids get this me, that this is who I am raising my kids. I just don’t care about that stuff anymore. I really don’t.’

“Of course when you get engaged you’re going to show off your ring, if you get a car — no matter what it is — you feel really proud and you might show it off on social media,” she said. “I’m not here to show off the way that I used to. It’s just not who I am anymore.”
