In a video on TikTok, Anber said she was most angry at her family members who did not attend the celebration.
“My expectation at all was that no one would show up,” she said.
“And I was literally crying hysterically because no one showed up for my daughter, even though I had just confirmed with everyone that they were showing up.
“It's f**king sad, it really is. And I'm angry at my family and I feel sorry for my children.

'And again, it's not about, for example, the money like that.
“I was devastated that I had spent £320 ($400) on catering alone, but it really had to do with, I had to explain that to my older children who understand, and why my daughter didn't get the same treatment as the rest of my children.
“I do not understand.”
Anber then shared another video as she answered some of the other questions she was asked about the party, including that everyone had received an “RSVP” and that she had confirmed the “morning of” the party.
“And then no one showed up,” she continued.
“Yes, I received numerous apologies later.
“For example, my father finally said that he suddenly didn't feel well and couldn't show up.
“He came to see her three weeks after her birthday and gave her a present.”
Her brother had also said he would come, but his girlfriend then told Anber that he “didn't want to wake up.”
“They tried to call me at midnight that night,” Anber added.

The other friends with children she had invited were also 'too hungover' to come.
“All I know is that people are bad,” she said.
“Um, that's probably why I made that really sad video of me crying and having no friends, because it shows that I have no friends and no family.
“And a lot of people thought it had to do with, um. They didn't like me.
“It literally has to do with my child. And it really sucks, but it does, because everyone stands up for my two older boys.
'No one wants anything to do with my daughter.
