In the kind of loving note that a man hopes to get from the woman he loves, Donald Sterling received an Instagram post from his former mistress, V. Stiviano, who posted a picture of herself dressed as an angel sitting on Sterling’s lap and informed the octogenarian: “I will forever be your ANGEL.”

Stiviano, who taped Sterling’s racist comments that led to a national uproar and his loss of control of the Los Angeles Clippers, claimed she was not even Sterling’s girlfriend, but simply an “archivist” after the tapes went public.

Stiviano’s post called Sterling’s wife Shelly “the evil witch of the west,” warning him, ironically, not to let Shelly “suck the living life out of you.” Her tender mercies continued with, “I’m here for you. I’ve always been here for you.” In a reminder of days past, she added, “When things get hard, wear the visor and let your tears of joy flow.”

” I will forever be your ANGEL ” Don’t let the evil witch of the west Rochelle (Shelly) Sterling suck the living life out of you. I’m here for you. I’ve always been here. I’m not going anywhere. I’m turning thee other cheek while unveiling the truth. Mask the pain with LOVE and compassion for thy enemy. When things get hard wear the visor and let your tears of joy flow. There’s nothing you can’t handle. Don’t give up on life now. You know the truth and that’s all that matters. This too shall pass. I LOVE you. I’ve learn from some of the best people in the world. Lucky and very bless and so it is. #LATimes #LosAngelesTimes #News #NYTimes #NewYorkTimes #TheNewYorkBestSellers #1 #Author #Writer #NewsWeek #WashingtonPost #ChicagoTribune #Crown #Publishers #Publishing #RandomHouse #TheNewyorker #WallStreetJournal #Change #Politics #DonaldTSterling #LOVES #VStiviano LOVE is my only motivation.

Unsatisfied with her first post, Stiviano added a picture depicting the kind of higher love she and Sterling reached when their spiritual union was at its height:
