Rosie’s rise to fame
Last year, Rosie gained widespread attention after a video of her emotional farewell to her employer and children at the airport went viral. Despite the overwhelming love and support she received, Rosie made the difficult decision to return to Lebanon in January.

Despite the hardships she has faced, Rosie remains hopeful and believes that everything will fall into place in due time. Her resilience and unwavering love for her children have made her an inspiration to many.
