'Rebekah also shared a video of Donald Trump talking about facing "hate" and criticism, with the US President-elect saying: "Let them doubt you, let them criticise you because the more they throw at you the stronger you become. The path to success is never without resistance and hate. Hate is just a part of that journey."

The video continued: "Understand this, no one who ever achieved anything great did it without facing opposition. Hate comes from a place of fear, insecurity and jealousy. People hate because your ambition, your drive makes them uncomfortable. Your desire to push past limits threatens the comfort they built around mediocrity."

"So what should you do? Let them hate. Let their word be nothing more than background noise. You weren't put here to see their approval. You're not living your life to make them feel comfortable.

"You're here to follow your purpose, to chase your dreams and to live life on your own terms, you're beautiful."
