UPDATE: Alabama Barker is speaking out against accusations that her recent revelation of a pregnancy loss was a publicity stunt. The 19-year-old singer took to Instagram to defend herself after critics suggested her announcement was made for attention.
In a now-deleted Instagram story, Alabama firmly stated, “The idea that I’d ever share something so personal for attention is insane.” Her emotional response highlights the personal nature of her journey, emphasizing that it is not meant to be performative. “My journey is my own, not because someone else shared theirs,” she added.
This urgent response follows Alabama’s emotional TikTok video, where she shared her heart-wrenching experience. The montage, which has since been removed, featured clips of her in tears, alongside a caption expressing her deep pain: “You know ever since I lost my baby, got cheated on, while also getting hated on, I’d get this feeling like …. I’ll never be the same person again.” One poignant clip showed her tenderly touching her baby bump, showcasing the gravity of her loss.
Adding to the drama, Alabama revealed plans to step away from social media, stating she will be “deleting” Instagram for a while. However, she confirmed she will host a live-stream on Twitch on September 27, giving fans a chance to connect with her in a different format.
The controversy surrounding Alabama intensified earlier this year when fellow influencer Bhad Bhabie made allegations regarding her relationships, claiming Alabama was pregnant with Tyga’s child. Alabama swiftly denied these claims in a TikTok post, stating, “Let’s clear this up. I never in my life have remotely been near Tyga. I’ve also never been pregnant, nor do I know Soulja Boy. The end.”
Alabama Barker is the daughter of renowned musician Travis Barker, known for his work with the iconic rock band Blink-182, and former Miss New York USA winner Shanna Moakler. She gained fame through the MTV reality series Meet the Barkers, which showcased her family life.
As the story develops, fans are left to ponder the emotional weight behind Alabama’s heartfelt messages and the public scrutiny she faces. The backlash she has received underscores the challenges public figures encounter while navigating personal tragedies.
