Lindy Klim is getting back on her feet after a very difficult period in her life.
The Balinese princess showed off her new car in an Instagram post on Monday, revealing she had bought the blue SUV after loaning vechiles from friends.
‘Proud moment for me! I bought this big boy all on my own,’ the 46-year-old wrote in her caption.
‘Huge thanks to the amazing friends who’ve loaned me a car since November forever grateful,’ she added.
Lindy looked gleeful in the series of photos, which also showed her driving the car with her children as passengers.
Klim has struggled financially after her split from British property developer Adam Ellis.

The former wife of champion swimmer Michael Klim ended things with Adam, her second husband, in October last year after six years of marriage.
The model, who is now dating medical tech businessman Paul Mullert, admitted she didn’t realise how ‘damaging’ her relationship with Adam was for a long time, and admitted there were issues she had ignored at first.
Lindy eventually was forced to pack up and leave Bali, jetting to Melbourne with her four children, Stella, 19, Rocco, 16, and Frankie, 13, whom she shares with first husband Michael, and Goldie, Adam’s daughter.
She told Daily Mail Australia she only packed the essentials, which included clothes and other household necessities.
‘I left almost everything, I only took the essentials. I just brought back clothes, my coffee machine and my Globe Kitchen knives which I have had forever as I love cooking,’ she said.
‘I started from scratch, I feel like it’s cleansing. My old life was so traumatic for me I just wanted to start fresh.’
Lindy admitted she was ‘super broke’ after the split and arrived back in Australia with only a few belongings.
‘I rented a house that’s fully furnished, because I have nothing. I arrived in Australia with two suitcases and my kids,’ she told news.com.au in February.
‘Proud moment for me! I bought this big boy all on my own,’ the 46-year-old wrote in her caption. ‘Huge thanks to the amazing friends who’ve loaned me a car since November forever grateful,’ she added

‘I left everything in Bali. I don’t even care. I don’t ever want to see it again.’
Despite the ordeal, Lindy is certain she will return to her island home someday.
‘Bali is my home, my family still live [there], it’s where I feel grounded spiritually. But I probably won’t go back for quite a while,’ she told Daily Mail.
‘I just need to settle into Australia and give it a little rest for a while.’
Lindy married Adam in 2018 in a lavish Tuscan ceremony.
Following her move to Melbourne, Lindy debuted her relationship with medical tech businessman Paul Mullert in February.
‘He’s just a normal, nice guy. We’ve been seeing each other for a few months and just taking it slow,’ Lindy told The Daily Telegraph.
