Heart Evangelista slammed unsolicited comments pressuring her to get pregnant.
In a series of Twitter posts on Monday, the actress expressed how furious she was on the compilation of comments from TikTok users criticizing her for being childless, with one comment saying "Sayang lang ang ganda ng katawan, hindi mabuntis ng asawa."
"Stop telling me to get pregnant unless you really want to hurt me. Nobody knows the real struggle," Evangelista said.
She noted that while her life is “good,” she would consider it just a bonus if she does get pregnant.
“People I love are fine and everything else in between is okay, so bonus na lang if I do conceive. Again, it’s my body,” she added.

In a separate tweet, Heart said having a child is not a requirement for a woman to feel happy and complete.
“I’m just furious how people think na need mo magkaanak para maging masaya. I am already a happy person and grateful," she wrote.

In May 2018, the actress announced that she was expecting twins. However, she later suffered a miscarriage and lost both babies. She has since admitted that pregnancy has been a sensitive topic for her.
