I’m a mum-of-9 after being pregnant 12 YEARS in a row, now I’m about to become a gran at 40 but the trolls are not happy
A MUM-of-nine at the age of 40 has revealed she has a new addition to her massive family.
Kora Duke, from Las Vegas, revealed she was pregnant every year for 12 years while growing her family, first giving birth at just 16.
The mum has carried nine children starting from 2000 when she was 16 years old, heartbreakingly only eight survived.
The quick succession of her children meant Kora was pregnant for 12 years in a row.
Kora, who is married to Andre, 41, a business consultant, but now it seems the family have a new addition to celebrate.
The matriarch’s eldest daughter, Sheena, 21, has announced she is expecting a baby boy.
Taking to Instagram, the family announced the new member in a clip which received mixed reactions.
While many fans congratulated the family, others claimed it was ‘horrible parenting’.
But it’s not the first time the family have received attention.
Despite Kora hitting 40 and being a mum-of-nine, many have commented on how young the soon-to-be grandmother looks.
Others questioned how she still looks so young after so many children, adding she could pass for their ‘sister’.
Kora added: ‘After my ninth child I couldn’t shift the weight. It had always been pretty simple, but this time I struggled, there just wasn’t any time.’
So slowly, the tax and insurance consultant, made small changes to her diet and lifestyle.
‘I’d never thought about weight lifting,’ she said. ‘Then my husband suggested it and I’ve never looked back.’
In the recent clip, people were quick to share their thoughts on her daughter’s pregnancy and were left divided.
One person wrote: “Horrible parenting.”
