Pearl Modiadie got herself one of best gifts ever for Mother’s Day.
As a first-time mom, Modiadie bought herself a Porsche to celebrate being a mother.
“I gifted myself a push present in celebration of my first Mother’s Day. #MommyCar #ForBabyLewatleAndMommy,” she wrote on Instagram.
The star spoke about how she previously could not celebrate Mother’s Day because it was a reminder of the death of her mother. Pearl’s mom died on 9 May.
“For the longest time Mother’s Day was a reminder of what I had lost, but now I celebrate what I have been given… the gift of being a mom,” she wrote on Instagram.
