Renowned media personality Kamene Goro has addressed reports that have been doing rounds on interwebs claiming that she is expectant.
In a candid update in which she addressed aspects of her life, including her health, the celebrated media personality dismissed the claims, setting the record straight.
The reports which she termed as insensitive first surfaced after her birthday celebrations in which a section of netizens noticed her physical condition and gave it their own interpretation which she has since clarified.
She shared her frustrations, noting that she has seen comments on how she was walking on her birthday with some claiming that it was because she is expecting a child.
"Over the past week, I've seen a lot of comments, and speculation about how I was walking on my birthday, and it always goes back to the same outdated pretty insensitive conclusion that I'm pregnant. Like, come on guys.
“I said I would never respond but I feel I should because those sentiments are so unfounded and ignorant," Kamene wrote on her Insta stories.
She explained that her altered gait was as a result of a surgery she had earlier in the year, adding that she is still on the path to recovery.
"Remember in January I had surgery on my knee that had me in the hospital for 5 days. I haven't walked in the long, it's actually in the run-up to my birthday that I started to try walking without my crutches. It's a difficult process to try to restore activity and muscle strength to the knee, that's why I'm walking or waddling funny. It's been such a difficult recovery honestly," Kamene explained.

Warning to those too quick to conclude out of ignorance
She urged people not to be too quick to arrive at conclusions based on ignorance but rather to ask for the truth.
