in
an
interview,

said,
"My
children
have
really
liked
the
men
in
my
life
and
they
have
liked
each
one
of
them.
For
whatever
reason,
it
hasn't
worked
out,
but
I
enjoyed
the
journey
with
them,"

and

"Just
before
Maneck
came
into
my
life,
Alaya
and
Omar
were
chatting
about
something
and
they
said,
'Mama,
you
should
really
get
your
life
together.'
I
said,
'What?'
They
said,
'Yeah,
look
at
papa.
He
has
met
Laila
aunty
and
settled
down
with
her.
They
have
had
a
child
together.
He
has
got
his
life
sorted.
You
should
also
get
someone
and
just
get
married
and
settle
down.'"
