In a lengthy Instagram post, Simphiwe also shared that she was left with nothing and with no life insurance. She did not have a job and she was left with a car that her husband was murdered in.

“3 years ago I became a 27-year-old widow. My husband passed away 2 months after our wedding (with no life insurance) and I was left with nothing. I didn’t have a job and I was left with a car that he was murdered in. My family was all I had.” – she said

Simphiwe further stated that she remembers posting a photo of herself at the beach with her family and people started talking about how she is spending her late husband’s insurance money which she didn’t have and wishing she actually had it.

“I was fortunate that I had a family that could take care of me, most widows don’t. 3 months later I got a job at broken vows and 3 months after that my aunt died in my arms and it felt like things were just getting worse. I promised myself that I would work so hard that when people look at me they would actually think that I did get that insurance money. Mission accomplished”

Simz says moral of the story is, people will always talk, don’t let what they say hurt you or get you down. “Use it as motivation to become a better person and to achieve your goals. Before you judge a widow for moving on, whether it be buying a new house, a car or falling in love again just be glad she’s moving at all.” – she said

Simphiwe Ngema also shared shared the exciting news on Instagram that she bought a new house.

“Today I choose to celebrate my goals because for the longest time, achieving something was a relief and not a celebration. I’m not afraid to talk about what I’ve been through because I learnt a long time ago that “you can’t heal under a mask, wounds need air”. My achievements might be small but next time you see me, know that’s all ME!!!. Here’s to healing and achieving more goals. Get up! Little lady, no one is coming to save you.” – she added
