She added: “You are my soundboard, you’ve taught me so much thus far, and you love me and my children unconditionally. During a time where I had given up on finding a soulmate, God sent you. Thank you for being my friend first, yet being intentional with my time and heart. Happiest Birthday to the man that has made me The Happiest Girl In The World! 🙌🏽❤️.”
In O’Neal’s comments, Henderson wrote that he will “cherish” O’Neal’s birthday wish. “The honor is mines. I will accept the many congratulatory messages. But yours I will cherish.”
