Constance Hall clarifies her controversial abortion comment.

On Monday Constance Hall announced she’s expecting her first child with her new partner, Denim Cooke. Hall is already shares four children with her ex-partner, and Cooke is a father-of-two.

Within minutes the popular blogger’s Facebook page and the social media pages of the news outlets reporting on the announcement were flooded with negative comments aimed towards the 33-year-old.

A lot of the critics were unhappy with the mum-of-six’s comments around abortion.

“We are not ready for this and I am petrified, babies terrify me,” she wrote in her Facebook announcement.

“But are we happy? Pigs in s***. Well…. I’m hormonal, I considered having an abortion this morning because Densy slept in.”

Hall has now responded to the criticism in a follow up Facebook comment.

“A lot of people are angry that I joked about abortion,” she began her post. “Actually, I was dead set serious.”

The mum-of-six said she did consider an abortion and she actually called her sister to talk about it.

“I am pro choice, I always have been and I believe in normalising abortions, they shouldn’t be a dirty secret that we don’t discuss in public forums.

“That said, I consider abortions and miscarriage/fertility issues two very separate topics. And I would never joke about the latter.”

Hall finished up her post by apologising to those who had been offended by her comments.

“So I am sorry for offending those that were offended. It wasn’t intended to offend.”
