Faith Nketsi thanks fans who kept her pregnancy secret as she reflects on motherhood

Reality TV star and new mom Faith Nketsi's reality show has wrapped up airing and she has thanked people who respected her choice to keep her pregnancy private.

Taking to her Instagram timeline on Wednesday, she shared final snaps of her pregnancy and said she was wrapping up sharing the journey with her fans. 

“Just like that! That is it from me with my pregnancy journey and I’d like to thank you guys so much, not only for respecting my decision to keep it private but also for accepting and loving me and baby Sky,” she wrote.

She also took an opportunity to gush about her husband whom she thanked for taking a leap of faith with her

“Baba ka Sky my love ngiyabonga! You're my peace, my comfort and my strength. You make life that much special. You will forever have my heart till I’m no longer on this earth. No matter what, you will forever remain my family because you gave me the most beautiful gift of being a mother. I’ll forever grant you respect and love for taking that leap of faith with me.”

The reality star took to Twitter late in September to share her experience with fans, saying she was in labour for 26 hours before she held her baby, which made her think twice about baby number two.

“26 hours in labour is enough to make me never ever want to go through that again. Maybe I’ll change my mind one day, who knows. But right now I might still be traumatised hey,” she wrote.

“My birthing experience was horrifying. I remember begging for a C-section at 8cm dilated. I still don’t understand why they didn’t do it.”
