K. Michelle’s ‘Baby Fever’ Post Derailed After Fans Accuse Her of Not Taking Care of Her Only Son

Singer K. Michelle teased on social media that she’s ready to have more children, but fans quickly accused her of barely being a parent to her only child.

The “Can’t Raise a Man” artist has been very vocal in the past about wanting to have twins with her fiance Dr. Kastan Sims. She gave birth to her son Chase in 2004 and has been very adamant about keeping him off of television and under the radar. She did, however, reveal on Twitter in 2017 that she was having fertility issues following her diagnosis with Lupus.

The 33-year-old shared an Instagram video of twin girls laughing up a storm while living their best lives on a swing set. K. Michelle captioned the recording, “Ovaries😉🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 My only focus #comingsoonfinally #prayersup #happyplace.”

Fans quickly bombarded “Kimberly’s” post with comments saying the singer wasn’t prepared to have more kids because she barely parents her 14-year-old son.

One fan wrote, “Isn’t ur mom taking care of the kid u already do have? Asking for my cousin😂.”

Another added, “Never understood how people keep having kids and barely had the 1st one🤷🏾‍♀️ but that none of my business.”

“Tf how she barely has time,” said a third person.

One person commented, “She don’t have time 4 one wtf she talkin bout.”

K. Michelle opened up to Essence in Oct. 2017 about how important it was to keep her son and her future children out of the limelight.

“I’ve never put my son on Love and Hip Hop. I never posted him on my Instagram page and I’ve protected him from the Internet, the heckling and all that kind of stuff. And when the babies are born, they probably won’t be seen much either.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
