Rachel Otuoma, the estranged wife of former footballer Francis Oduor Otuoma, has broken her silence following viral online photos showing her with a baby bump. The images, which circulated widely on social media, sparked speculation that she was expecting a child. However, Rachel has firmly dismissed the claims, clarifying that the picture was created using artificial intelligence (AI) and is not real.
Speaking during a live session on her social media page, Rachel explained that she was surprised to see the edited photo trending online. She said the image was manipulated by unknown individuals seeking attention. “I am not pregnant. That photo is fake and was generated using AI. People should stop spreading lies,” she stated.
Rachel added that while she has grown used to rumors about her personal life, she found it necessary to address the issue to prevent further misinformation. She emphasized that she is currently focusing on her career, family, and personal growth, and not on any romantic relationship or pregnancy.
Fans and followers reacted differently to her clarification, with some expressing disappointment over the false rumors and others praising her for addressing the matter calmly.
The incident has once again raised concerns about the misuse of AI-generated images on social media. Many Kenyans have urged users to verify information before sharing, noting that such false content can damage reputations and cause unnecessary emotional distress.
