Simon Thomas celebrates his wife becoming a qualified lawyer after being told she'd never make it

Simon Thomas has taken to social media to congratulate his wife on becoming a lawyer after a colleague previously told her she'd never make it.

The 49-year-old posted on his Instagram page about how proud he was of the hard work Derrina had put into achieving her goal and how she'd chosen not to listen to the words of one critic which "could've broken her."
