Ciara Pregnancy Russell Wilson Online Trolls

Skip navigation!

We are gathered here today to put an end to this nonsense. Ciara and Russell Wilson are expecting their first child together. On Tuesday, Ciara posted a special photo on Instagram to share the news with fans that she and her new husband are expecting a new baby. But — according to trolls on twitter — she should be ashamed of herself for getting pregnant so soon after her July wedding. There's another element to the Ciara baby backlash: her ex, Future. Some fans are dragging him into Ciara's happiness, suggesting that her marriage and pregnancy are all a part of her extended effort to get back at the rapper she has a 2-year-old son with. Online, Ciara fans swerved criticism of the "1, 2 Step" singer, by reminding trolls that Ciara's life has nothing to do with her ex.

I'm going to pray for the females calling Ciara a hoe for being pregnant by her husband. May God restore wisdom and fathers in your life

Ciara is the definition of the bounce back queen after a bad breakup. Found a good man, got married, and now she's having a baby.

Ciara a hoe?
But she's married?
& pregnant by the man she married?
That's what a "hoe" is to y'all? pic.twitter.com/G8LOZqynvz

"Ciara only got pregnant to show up Future!"

No, boo boo. She's moved on w/ her life. You're still wearing your ex's holey gym shorts tho.?

Ciara left a man who raps about codeine for a man who'll watch Golden Girl reruns with her. Amen, amen.

No matter who you're a fan of, slut-shaming Ciara for any reason (let alone choosing to have a baby with her husband) is senseless. The woman is enjoying her newest goodies: her happy family.
