"She does what she needs to do in the matter, there's no choice. It's a very practical mindset that I think every mother will understand."
She added: "There are times in your life where you reach a very practical point of view that if something needs to be done, it will be done regardless of whether the world may think it’s not the correct thing to do.
"They may say that she’s saying something and doing something else but if you really want to do it then leave your conscience on the side and just brazen it out and that’s her (Noyonika)."
