“I just wanted to make sure I had a beautiful and private healthy time in my journey,” Halle shared.
“I feel like sometimes as people in the limelight, people feel like they want to know every little thing about their life, but I think it’s really beautiful if you keep some things private and sacred,” she continued.
Halle was also asked if all of the interest in her pregnancy was stressful.
“I mean, it was a little bit [stressful], but honestly, I stayed off all social media,” she replied. “I really tried to, just to keep myself sane and okay.”
As for all of the fans commenting that they knew, Halle said, “I’d be like, it’s great that you know, but I’m just going to chill. That’s wonderful if you support me, and if not, that’s okay too. I hope you have a wonderful life.”
