Speculation about Esther Passaris' pregnancy status arose after Robert Alai shared a photo of her, which quickly went viral. In response, Passaris addressed the rumors in a unique manner.
Rather than replying indignantly, the politician and women's rights activist acknowledged that there might be reasons why Alai thought she was pregnant.
Passaris posted a message to clarify the situation. She stated that she is not pregnant, but rather, she has gained weight.
