She went on to admit that she feels guilty whenever she leaves for work leaving her baby behind.

“How I'd rather spend every waking moment.....with the love of my life. But bills aren't gonna pay themselves now are they? I feel sooooo guilty every time I leave for work. Am I the only one? It's the WORST feeling. The working mums get me. It doesn't get easy with time...but you gotta do what you gotta do #WorkingMums #KingTumi” she captioned the video.

Something which other mothers agreed to including KTN’s Najma Ismael.
