Controversial mum-to-be Bonnie Blue has sparked a storm online after her pregnancy reveal, hitting back at women who flooded her socials with angry messages about miscarriage and loss
Bonnie Blue has hit back at women who flooded her socials with “aggressive” comments about miscarriages and stillbirths after she announced she is pregnant.
The controversial star recently revealed she is expecting, sending social media into overdrive. But while some fans offered congratulations, others reacted with anger, including women who said her announcement had triggered painful memories of babies they had lost.
One raging responder wrote: “I recently miscarried and if this is a publicity stunt that’s really low of you. There’s people out here who are desperate for kids.”
Another said: “Respectfully, this is just an all time low and is actually disgusting.
“There are couples out there who genuinely deserve a child, try for a child for years and years and cannot fall pregnant and you are out here just playing fk around and find out?” She added: “This is foul and you genuinely need to work on yourself if you seriously want to become a mother and bring a child into this world, and if this is some kind of joke then that is sick and you should be deeply ashamed of yourself.”
While a third commented: “If it’s a lie she should be ashamed of herself for all the women that’s struggling to get pregnant or having stillborns and miscarriages. She needs sectioning and the key thrown away.”
Now Bonnie has issued a blunt response. “To the women showing anger towards me because they’ve experienced a miscarriage, that’s wrong,” she said.
“It’s terrible that they’ve gone through such a loss and I genuinely can’t comprehend what they’ve had to endure. But I am not the reason for it.”
Bonnie insisted that sharing her pregnancy news was her right and that it was never intended to mock or diminish anyone else’s grief. “It’s my body and I can choose to share news about my pregnancy however I wish,” she continued.
“It does not mock miscarriages at all. What they’ve experienced is heartbreaking, but it isn’t my fault and it isn’t my problem.
“If you’re angry, direct that anger elsewhere.” In typical Bonnie fashion, she also pointed out that the backlash has only boosted her reach online.
“Thank you for the view and the interaction,” she added pointedly. The mum-to-be went on to argue that pregnancy announcements should not be turned into battlegrounds.
“As a woman carrying a baby, you already have enough worries. Why add stress?
“It’s not good for the baby and it’s just wrong,” she said.
“There are pages and helplines to talk about miscarriage and get advice.
“A pregnancy announcement isn’t one of them.”
