¨Because they thought I was expensive or because I have been on a couple of shows.¨she continued.

¨My husband told me that your comeback has to be your own thing.¨
Hustling might have been the way to go if at all she looked forward to bounce back on her two feet.

Kate then revealed how she later settled down with her longtime friend.
¨I realised that people get frustrated because they think my life is perfect.¨
Kate Actress says this in regard to netizens´ reactions who think she brags whenever she puts up family posts on social media.
¨It doesn´t mean that my family is bliss or I´m showing off in any way. I do it to encourage people out there.¨ she articulated.
It is through her career experiences that Kate cites, she has learnt how to handle trolls and bashing from social media.
¨I have come to understand that being a public figure means that your life is not private anymore¨ she sadly expresses.
