Just four days ago, Real Housewives Of Durban star Nonku Williams celebrated her birthday in style. The businesswoman made a photo dump on Instagram giving her fans a sneak peek inside her special day.
Captioning her flawless photos, Nonku said she is grateful for another year. She said everything that she has been through was all worth it.
She wrote: βGod has made everything beautiful in its timeβ¦β Ecclesiastes 3:11β¦This verse resonates with me so much as today marks the most precious and blessed day of my being. Not only am I grateful for another year but Iβm appreciative of the: Hardships- because they taught me patience and to lean only on God. Failures- which gave me another reason to try again.

Achievements- which makes everything worth it! I am blessed, highly favored, and set apart. Happy New Year to meπ₯³ππΉπ₯πβ
We love this for Nonku and we love that KG did not compromise on her mother's happiness. Life is not guaranteed so it is important that we make time to celebrate those that matter to us.
