Sauti Sol Vocalist Bien’s wife Chiki Kuruka has come out strongly to defend herself after agitated fan demand hat she should get pregnant already.
The comments came after Chiki posted a video of her and her hubby Bien Baraza dancing to a popular TikTok challenge, showing Kenyans how the lovebirds are coping with quarantine.
The newlyweds can be seen rocking PJ’s in the video and having a good time and generally serving their usual dose of couple goals.
Instagram user @k.i.o.g.o.r.a. commented saying, “We are tired now. Get pregnant Ma’am.”
The comment definitely rubbed Chiki he wrong way as her Nigerian fierceness came in full force to blast the fan.
“If you want a baby, have one. Maybe I don’t want one?” replied Chiki.
Chiki is not the first celebrity to go through cyberbullying of bullies asking her to get pregnant.
A renown case in Kenya is that of gospel singer Kambua who had been married a whole seven years before getting a child. Trolls had a field day with her situation but God had better plans for her.
“I remember thinking, the reason why it angers me is because people don’t even know what your journey is like. They don’t know what you’re struggling with. They don’t know if you even want to have children. They don’t know if you can have children and there are so many people especially today who are struggling with infertility. It so unfortunate that we become such a culture of being so intrusive and putting people down,” she said during an interview.
