“We were financially unstable, no one was there to support us,” Omar shared. According to the Bulbulay actress, she completed her education on a merit scholarship. “I used to think that why me when everyone else was living a perfect childhood, why can’t I have those fancy clothes, car and stuff like that. This was also very traumatic for me as a child,” Omar asserted.
“This trauma built a change in me to be a better person,” she said by adding that maybe it was a form of acceptance and approval that she wanted to be accepted the way she is.
According to her, such things are very traumatic. However, for Ayesha, she believes that you learn from everything.
