Kazakh actress Zhanel Makazhan, who recently announced her divorce from Abai Asylkhan, has shared her thoughts on a woman's strength and vulnerability. The mother of many children admitted that she, too, sometimes shows resilience despite an inherent softness, the website infohub.kz reports.

News of the couple's divorce upset fans. In a new Instagram post, Zhanel reflected on how a woman, though a fragile being, copes with life's hardships.

"Tenderness and courage, vulnerability and resilience are intertwined in every woman. Sometimes a woman captivates with her gentleness, and sometimes she astonishes with her boldness. One moment she can be vulnerable, and the next she can show unexpected strength. That is because a woman's essence cannot be reduced to a single character trait: each situation reveals a new facet of her personality. These qualities are inherent in me as well. Sometimes I am my father's beloved daughter; at other moments I am a brave mother raising four children; and sometimes I allow myself to cry and show my vulnerability. It seems to me that a woman's true beauty lies in her ability to embrace all of her manifestations. Perhaps that is what people mean when they say a woman has 40 souls," she noted.

Followers supported Zhanel and remarked that she looks wonderful. "That very feeling when you need to heal yourself from within again," "Bloom, it suits you," "Sheer tenderness," "She still seems to be 18," "Beauty," commenters reacted.
