‘I ALMOST HAD A MISCARRIAGE’ BENSOUL’S SIDE CHICK TIFFANY OPENS UP

Bensoul’s side chick Tiffany Muikamba alias Tiffany The brand has disclosed how she deals with negativity after her pregnancy news went viral. In a statement on her social media page, she said she almost had a miscarriage, “Let me just be honest, I think it’s the pregnancy giving me all the strength to pull myself together. I almost had a miscarriage and I just want to be strong enough so my baby can grow in a peaceful environment.  Plus words from my wise aunt reminded me I’m a bad ass and I’ve been through worse. Sometimes though I’m just on autopilot.”

The mum to be also said she thought of ending her life because she did not want to disappoint her parents, “Well it was really hard accepting the fact that I was pregnant. I honestly never thought I would have the courage to keep the pregnancy. So mentally I was not ok, I was so scared about how I’m going to tell my parents that I was having a child I was sick almost all the time and I had to go to the hospital it actually reached a point where I thought of suicide was even better than disappointing my parents because they have really  sacrificed to get me where I am.  

The fact that I am not financially stable and I was going to have a baby who was going to be dependent on me was another factor.  So yes, I’ve been battling depression since January, with the love and support of my friend, family and also my baby daddy. But the journey has been full of ups and downs and I’m really proud of myself for even facing people on a platform like this but I’ve been getting better.”

Tiffany added that Bensoul encouraged her to tell her parents about the pregnancy, “I just remembered everything and I got chills. Well I had just had my first ultrasound since I had been getting sick a lot. So after the consultation with the baby’s dad, he just told me I had to do it. I remember going to my auntie’s place and producing the ultrasound and telling them I was pregnant. It was so emotional for all of them since they are the closest thing I have to a mother. 

Afterwards I went and told my grandparents and they were disappointed but very supportive. Then my dad was last in line since I was scared to tell him. But all went well that I ever pictured in my head. I was given the sex talk that some of you think I need. Then now we had to plan how I’m going to do this because my family told me I have to be responsible and sort my shit out so that’s what I’ve been trying to do.“
