Frodd’s wife recounts how she was body-shamed by sister while pregnant
Reality star Frodd’s wife, Chioma, recently opened up about being body-shamed by her sister during her pregnancy.
In an emotional interview on Maria Chike’s podcast, Mums Next Door, Chioma shared that her sister’s hurtful remarks made her feel self-conscious and vulnerable. Her sister had criticized her body, calling it a ‘water body,’ and urged her to drastically reduce her food intake.
Chioma admitted that these harsh words had a lasting impact on her, prompting her to make a personal vow.
She also discussed her struggles with postpartum depression, revealing that she felt overwhelmed, isolated, and had difficulty bonding with her newborn baby.
Chioma said:
“I have been body shamed before and that’s was when I was pregnant. It was a personal stuff between me and my elder sister.
I think it is important we talk about it because I hated it.
My sister told me that I had water body (someone who can get fat easily) so I should watch whatever I am eating. She said I would have a big bum and would blow very soon.
Because of those things she said I promised to show her Shege, that I would give birth and not be fat.
After I gave birth, I wanted to be on my own, I was always crying and found it difficult to bond with my baby”.
