Sharing the painful memory, she said:
“I lost my baby this year April. It’s not even a month before I auditioned for Big Brother. The whole thing was so overwhelming. I do not want to talk about it.”
The young star added that she kept the experience to herself because it was too painful to discuss publicly at the time.
