AceShowbiz - Issa Rae has got candid about her fear of pregnancy. When appearing on the "Big Tigger Morning Show", the "Insecure" alum admitted that she's afraid to get pregnant because she doesn't want to be "slowed down" in her career.
"I don't want to be slowed down for any reason," the 38-year-old declared. "And, my friends are like, 'Girl, it's not gone slow you down it's fine.' But I don't believe them."
Fans are quite supportive of Issa's decision. Weighing in on the interview, one person wrote, "Her body her decision … her career.. at the end of the day she has to be happy with her own decisions. No judgement- no agree or disagree, just allowing humans to live their lives freely."
Another opined, "It's her body and decision! Too many kids coming in this world and families are not financially prepared. I don't see the issue. Do you!" A different individual echoed, "Completely understandable! Dooo YOU! Them babies can wait."
Issa, who is married to Louis Diame, was previously hit with pregnancy rumors in early 2022. The pregnancy speculations emerged due to a video of her wearing a tight jumpsuit.
The video in question reportedly was taken on March 25 last year at the HOORAE x Kennedy Center Takeover in Washington D.C., where she was hosting a festival touting black creatives. In the clip, "The Lovebirds" actress could be seen wearing a black fitted jumpsuit.
It didn't take a long time for Issa to shut down the rumors though. "I am not pregnant, f**kyouverymuch," she fumed on Twitter, before insisting that it was just a food baby, "LET A B***H DRINK AND BE MERRY."
