Model and activist Gelila Bekele is not letting heartbreak stop her from reaching her goals. The 34-year-old model was Tyler Perry's longtime girlfriend.

While maintaining a low-profile on social media, Bekele, a doting mother-of-one, recently shared on Instagram Story a picture of herself in a different country.

FLAUNTING HER LONG LEGS

Bekele's travel snap showed her dressed in a stylish outfit. She wore a yellow turtleneck shirt and leather jacket, which she paired with a checkered mini skirt.

The Ethiopian model flaunted her towering legs in sheer black stockings and brown high-heeled boots. The view behind her suggested she was in Italy. She wrote:

"Mi manchi Italia."

A PEACEFUL SEPARATION

The photo came a few months after Perry revealed on Instagram last December that he has been a single man. The 51-year-old producer wrote that he was dealing with a mid-life crisis.

While other couples would become bitter after a break-up, Perry and Bekele's separation was a peaceful one. The entertainment mogul has remained best friends with her.

Besides being friends, Perry and Bekele also continue to co-parent their six-year-old son Aman Tyler. The renowned producer wants to become the "best father and man" he can be.

Apart from being a model, Bekele has released poignant short films.
