While the news of her pregnancy has caused an exciting stir in the public sphere, a lot of people have accused her of using an engagement announcement as a cover-up to reveal her pregnancy and her sexual life. However, some claim that she got married months ago.

When Area fada Charley Boy tweeted his mind on the matter, she responded that she “has it all”

That is not all. She wrote in a series of tweets (now deleted) why she got pregnant.

“I preached celibacy to young girls because I feel that’s the right way to live until you meet someone very special that you love and who loves you and wants to be in a committed relationship with you. Passing body around and having multiple partners is not the way and I stand by it.

“And I’ve lived by it. But then I turned 36 and I knew there was nothing else I wanted more than to be a mum & wife and celibacy wasn’t going to get me that! I even did a video talking about how much I wanted these two things and God has finally answered my prayers. Beyond blessed.”

Do you think she owes anyone an explanation for what she does with her private life?
