However, it was an old video from last December, which Lenee used to explain her growth in the last few months. She shared it on her TikTok account along with a heartfelt caption. She wrote:

"The amount you can grow and develop in just 6 months of devoting your life to Jesus and getting away from the shackles of the world and social media is truly astounding. I wish the peace I found within Jesus on everyone who reads this. Your identity in him matters, not how people choose to perceive you.”
