Alex Cooper Responds to Troll After Disclosing Gestational Diabetes
Podcaster Alex Cooper, host of the "Call Her Daddy" show, announced that she has been diagnosed with gestational diabetes while pregnant with her first child with husband Matt Kaplan. After revealing the condition, she received a direct message on Instagram telling her not to "complain about being pregnant." Cooper posted the message on her Instagram Stories and replied sarcastically, noting that most of the similar comments she receives come from men.
She described feeling isolated and emotionally overwhelmed by the diagnosis, but said sharing her experience aims to help other women with the condition feel less alone. Cooper emphasized that gestational diabetes can affect anyone, regardless of weight or fitness level, and expressed hope that her openness raises awareness.
