Claims of the couple's romance and pregnancy first surfaced in a report by Sunday Sun earlier this year, but speaking to True Love magazine recently, Jessica finally confirmed the good news.
She told the publication that she was not trying to hide the pregnancy from her fans but just wanted to enjoy the journey and her relationship without the spotlight being on her.
"There's nothing scandalous about my pregnancy. Therefore, I don't want any drama around it and I certainly don't want anyone to have an opinion about it."
The star took a small break from social media but later returned, posting a picture of herself in a puffy dress that sent the rumour mill into a meltdown.
Even though news of her pregnancy has now been confirmed, Jessica told True Love that fans still won't get a glimpse of her man on her social media accounts, not because she's ashamed of him, but she wants her romance all to herself.
Sharing the cover on Instagram, Jessica apologised to fans for keeping them in the dark. She
So I have something to share with you all. I’m very sorry I’ve been quiet and kept you in the dark about me.
The actress explained that she was now ready to share what she called her "biggest blessing" with fans.
"Now I’d like to share with you my blessing that God has gifted me with (well not just me... US lol). I feel chosen and blessed beyond compare."
Jessica is also taking a break from screens during her pregnancy and is expected to return early next year.
It is of course not the first time that the Isibaya star has disappeared from screens.
She told TshisaLIVE last year that she was leaving Isibaya to pursue other opportunities in theatre
"It's just something I felt I wanted to do at this point in my career. The opportunity availed itself, and I guess it found me at a point where I was like 'yes yes yes!' Having studied drama, the last time I was on stage was in my final year and I missed it," she said.
She returned to the show two months later, before leaving again when she fell pregnant.
When my husband left me for another lady I was so hurt and I used to cry every day. Whenever I could miss him I could just close my bedroom and cry because I never wanted my kids to see me crying. It was tough times to endure the stress and at work I could not perform well being a nurse I work with many people but I could be moody and could even loose tempers for small things my colleagues complained and I signed many warning before the matron.
ReplyDeleteI tried so much to move on but it was hard I love my husband some times I could see him dreams wake up thinking he would come but nothing, I used to sms him but no response calling him he never picked my calls and finally blocked all my numbers not even to support the kids . many times i tried to talk to his family and friends they tried their best but he had completely changed and he regarded everyone as a stranger kept a deaf ear on everyone who tried to talk to him. I resorted to sangomas and spell casters but not even at one time did i see a change. I started drinking alcohol because I couldn't handle the stress but as you all know once you are drunk you are out of stress it could be worse once the alcohol is out . I cant forget the day I came back home and our first born asked me where is Daddy I miss him a lot why he is no longer coming home I never gave a right answer I went in the bedroom started crying at this time. I thought a lot of bad things but again because I loved my kids I knew I had to be strong because it was my role to play as a mother.
I phoned one family friend she is such a darling to me and she gave me a number of Mama Thandy +27814476165 she said she had helped her two years ago i had lost all my trust in everyone but she strengthened me and gave me a go ahead to try Mama Thandy . I thought about it with all my heart and finally decided to contact Mama I made everything known to her and she said that we had a future with my husband and we are compatible but the lady had used something on my man which had diverted his feelings away from not only me but also from the whole family. i was so angry at this point and I asked if It was possible to get him back. mama thandy assured me that i would get my happiness back in three days
Before I begun the prayer with Mama Thandy and sent her my info with that of my husband then i was given the instructions of the prayers we did together over the phone and after the fast day my husband texted me saying hi it was not a big massage but i was so happy for that small massage i never replied though and after 48 hours of the prayer my husband came home i was not home by that time i was by neighbours i heard the car hooting and rushed to see who was it. He asked me to sit in the car we talked he was so romantic and he asked my forgiveness since then our lives have been progressing both in relationships and financially . I have written my story to tell everyone who may be in tears that I was like that before.
If you can contact Mama Thandy +27814476165 you will get help. Thank you mama
