8 most talked about Ghanaian celebrity pregnancies

Ghanaians celebrate the news of birth and expectation of the children of their favourite celebrities because they give out plenty to talk about during and beyond pregnancy.

While some of these pregnancy show offs may be for media hype and speculation, others are subjected to controversies because these women are either ‘single’ or because they finally got pregnant after several times of trying.

These pregnant female celebrities however, go the extra mile to hire the services of a photographer for what is termed as a ‘Maternity photo shoot’.

Some hide their bump all through the period and release pictures of it months after the baby has been born. Perhaps, for the fear that they might be bewitched.
