In November, Hilariareflected on a “challenging year,“writing on Instagram, “This has been one 💥 of a challenging year. I know for many, many of us … but I will only speak from personal experience right now. Sometimes I didn’t think I was gonna make it through. I want you to know how much you have helped me through some pretty dark struggles. Knowing you were there — such comfort.”
“Yes, my children and my husband, my family and close friends have been invaluable … but YOU, I don’t get to express this face to face, due to the nature of social media and how far we all are … I SO want you to know and take inhow grateful I am every dayfor you,” she continued. “I miss our chats and the safety net of our community. I’m hoping, one day, we will get back there.”
Hilaria added, “One thing struggle has taught me is to say ‘I love you more’. It’s what all of this is all about, in my opinion. So, I love you so … with my whole, grateful soul. Happy gratitude day.”
