In a heartfelt post, Mabel described 2024 as a year filled with challenges and trials. She, however, expressed gratitude for the strength and support she received from loved ones.

Although she did not disclose the exact date of her mother’s passing, she described her “as one of the strongest women I knew”.

In the footage accompanying the post, Mabel was seen weeping at her mother’s funeral.

“2024 was a year filled with roadblocks, challenges, and trials that pushed me to my limits. It was a difficult phase that tested me physically, mentally, and emotionally,” she wrote.

“Who can dare to challenge the one that gives and takes life? No one. I was ready to give up all that I had to keep you alive but it was obvious that the doctors had reached their limits. Tears rolled down my cheeks when I could no longer hear the voice of the most treasurable gift in my life.

“My prayer warrior, you fought a good fight and for as long as I live, you will remain the strongest woman I know. My heart is broken and countless thoughts racing through my mind but my courage is not shattered.

“It was a tough year, but thank God that I don’t look like what I’ve been through. My scars remain hidden, as I stand clothed in God’s grace. To everyone who stood by me during my darkest moments, I pray God continues to bless you and fulfill all your heart’s desires.”
