Big Brother Naija Pepper Dem housemate and Scotland Yard police officer, Khafi Kareem has vehemently denied pregnancy rumours in the mill describing it as nothing but fake news.
The reality star who was made famous in the house by her romance with Gedoni said no one should assume or congratulate her for being pregnant if she does not make such an announcement.
Khafi made this statement following a series of pregnancy comments on her pictures on social media. She went on to say she only has a big belly which she sometimes tries to hide by sucking it in when taking pictures.
“According to womb watchers on social media I have been pregnant for over a year,” she wrote.
“The way I’m looking at the next person who drops a pregnancy comment on my post. Continue reading if you don’t want to get blocked. (I’m not joking).
“I’ve ignored them for the longest now but according to the womb watchers on social media, I have been pregnant for over a year. So let me get this off my heart. Some people have flat stomachs naturally and some people have big stomachs naturally. The latter is ME. And when I’m on my period it is even bigger. I don’t owe anyone a flat stomach but still, I try to suck in my belly in every single picture, and sometimes I do it better than others. The worst is that even when I’m proud of my ‘sucking in skills’ on a particular picture there is always someone who still comments something about pregnancy. This is a habit that has to stop.”
She further advocated that women are more important and ambitious than giving birth only saying, “First of all, women are more than baby-making machines. A woman’s fertility or decision to start a family is for her to decide, not for you to comment on in every single picture. Must our stomachs always be the first thing you look at?
“Secondly, I’m not just speaking up for myself but for women in general. You may mean well when making pregnancy remarks but it is not always a compliment. For women who have had miscarriages, have been trying unsuccessfully for a baby, or simply conscious about their weight it can be very distressing, triggering, and also puts a lot of undue pressure on them. So unless someone has announced a pregnancy or told you then please be nice and don’t comment or congratulate them on one.
“Trust me when the time is right I welcome pregnancy (twins please Lord!) and starting a family at God’s time. But until I’ve said I’m expecting please stop with the pregnancy comments. I’ll have no patience for them anymore and anyone who writes such comments will get blocked”
