She doesn't owe any of these miserable heaux an explanation! Girl, enjoy your baby and live and love in peace! Congrats!

Again with this. She keeps talking about this and I'm not sure if this is for keeping herself out there.

She's absolutely correct! Look how this cruel world is treating her just for being her beautiful self, I couldn't imagine the added stress of telling the world of her pregnancy.

She's correct in a literal sense, but as someone who has chosen a public persona she should have found a better way to handle this. She was never required to elaborate on her feelings but she needed to state the facts.

Everyone but her has moved on.

I will never forget her older sister stating "her sister is not like her boyfriend now babydaddy's other girlfriends like she was so special. She knew she would be roasted for becoming I guess like everybody else an unwed babymomma. At least her babydaddy will have new content and lots of clicks now that he has a baby.

Oh she loves her african american nose, when the world knew it was a pregnancy nose spread, girl please move on like your ignorant man wanted your fans to do.

The way she handled it is haunting her. All she had to say was "YES" to confirm and never speak of it again..... All of the guessing games.... playing with her fans. That "keep them talking about you" playbook.... it has costed her. I believe that a good amount of of her fans have turned on her. Am I correct? She can't move on for a reason. I believe that reason is guilt.

Oh brother. Why hide it? To keep bringing it up after the fact. Weird. All children are blessings. Move on.

And as my mom would say, when's the wedding? Drop the subject of the kid. It's good to STAY private.

Now she won't stop talking about her pregnancy. Girl you had the baby already now move on to something else.

It's not that she hid her pregnancy, everyone gets that but what they don't get is how she pretended she wanted privacy but would constantly troll social media with the peek-a-boo guessing game on if she was or was not pregnant. She played a dumb game and now it's backfired because people are now uninterested in anything that she does. She should go enjoy being a new mommy and leave people alone cause they're done with her.

People are over her because of that stunt. Now she feels the sting, she has to guilt everyone into feeling sorry for her because of her claims of needing privacy. What an idiot! It's easy to have privacy, stay off social media, chill out with your dude and mind your business. She didn't do that, her babydaddy ran to social media playing games with her pregnancy and even going as far as photoshopping her pics. People don't like their intelligence being played with and now they've moved on.

Just be quiet about it Halle. He’s here and born already. It didn’t go the way you thought it would. So what, just stfu about it already and raise your Son. Find some more roles or make an album, but, please just stfu about trying unsuccessfully to hide your pregnancy like Kyla Pratt did with her 1st child.

A bit immature. To deny the pregnancy and want to later be open about it is attention seeking. Her talent should be what people are talking about. She chose to be a baby momma to a man who has talent that won’t reach higher than YouTube. She looks ridiculous continuously speaking on it now.
