Kaley Cuoco Shuts Down Pregnancy Rumors (Again): 'Would You Say That to My Face?'
Kaley Cuoco would like everyone to know that she is decidedly not pregnant—and maybe, just maybe, people should stop speculating about whether or not she is.
The Big Bang Theory star posted a photo from what looks to be a very romantic trip with her husband, Karl Cook, and it got the rumor mill going in her comments section. One commenter wrote, “Are you hiding a baby bump?!?!” Another said, “When’s the baby due?” A third said, “But you look pregnant in tonight’s episode of Big Bang theory as well.”
Cuoco was having none of the speculation, so she shut it down where it all started: social media. Per People, the actress posted a screenshot to her Instagram Stories where she addressed the issue head-on. “I’m so sorry I bent over in a way to where my dress billowed in the wind and made you think this,” Cuoco wrote. “Question. Would you walk up to me and ask this straight to my face?”
This isn’t the first time Cuoco has taken on those who feel it’s okay to comment about her body and whether or not she is pregnant. Back in October, she posted a photo of herself and her sister on the red carpet and was faced with body-shaming social media trolls. “I posted a picture this morning of my sister and I from an event last night and people said I looked pregnant,” she shared in an Instagram Story. “Would you ever walk up to someone on the street or at an event where they’re obviously dressed up and say, ‘Are you pregnant?’”
“It’s just so comedic and shocking that people would ask that,” she continued. “I’m not pregnant. I guess it was a pregnant angle. Seriously, shut up.”
Cuoco is absolutely right that a pregnancy or, in her case, a non-pregnancy is nobody’s business but her own. So let’s just all stop the speculation, okay?
