THE ex-wife of bodybuilder Nermin Sulejmanovic shared a heartbreaking final post before being slain by her former husband.
The attack took place on Friday in Gradacac, Bosnia, before 35-year-old Sulejmanovic turned the gun on himself.
Mum Nizama Hećimović shared a photo with her daughter saying she made the "future worth living for" before the young woman's life was cut tragically short.
Accompanied by a snap of her baby's foot, she posted: "A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, money less, home happier, clothes more shabby, the past forgotten and a future worth living for."
Nizama's sister also shared a heartbreaking tribute on Facebook, writing: "My beautiful darling, I still can't believe that this could happen. Your sister loves you the most."
Local media reported that Sulejmanovic killed his former wife as their daughter, who survived the attack unscathed, "lay crying in a pool of blood".

Alongside Nizama, father and son Džengiz and Denis Onder were murdered and three more were wounded on the street as Sulejmanovic continued his rampage before turning the gun on himself.
The alleged killer said: "I warned everyone that it would come to this. She has been hiding my child for eight days.
"I'm waiting to load my weapon and move on."
The grisly attack against the mum took place in a rural cottage in Sibovac, Bosnia.

As cops caught up with the man, Sulejmanovic live-streamed two more videos on social media, claiming to have shot at least two other people while on the run.
The Prime Minister of the Bosnian Federation, Nermin Niksic: “I have no words to describe what happened today in Gradacac.
“The murderer took his own life in the end, but no one can bring back the lives of the victims.”
A police statement said: "The assailant wounded three additional people before he committed suicide after being located and before being apprehended."
According to local media, the bodybuilder was a member of a drug gang and had already several convictions for acts of violence, fights, and his involvement in drug trafficking.
Police said that viewers who wrote supportive messages while watching the man's grisly live stream on Friday will be questioned and could possibly face legal repercussions.
How you can get help
Women’s Aid has this advice for victims and their families:
- Always keep your phone nearby.
- Get in touch with charities for help, including the Women’s Aid live chat helpline and services such as SupportLine.
- If you are in danger, call 999.
- Familiarise yourself with the Silent Solution, reporting abuse without speaking down the phone, instead dialing “55”.
- Always keep some money on you, including change for a pay phone or bus fare.
- If you suspect your partner is about to attack you, try to go to a lower-risk area of the house – for example, where there is a way out and access to a telephone.
- Avoid the kitchen and garage, where there are likely to be knives or other weapons. Avoid rooms where you might become trapped, such as the bathroom, or where you might be shut into a cupboard or other small space.
