The stars comments section was filled with Instagram users celebrating her maturity.
Actress Phuti Khomo said: “To whom it may concern. We always expect our fellow sisters to be bitter and filled with blinding rage during breakups.
“That is why no one will see love in @simzngema post.
“On the surface it looks like a break up post but if you actually read what she wrote intently, and the pictures on the post, you will realize that this post speaks of a love celebrated between 2 people and a love for a child.”
In 2020, Simz and Tino made headlines when Simz announced that she was pregnant with Tino’s child.
The couple had kept their romance a secret and Simz kept her pregnancy under wraps too.
