Charlotte Flair Provides Context To Andrade's Mistaken Pregnancy Claims
Flair was responding to Andrade's first interview since his WWE release
Mar 30, 2021
Charlotte Flair's camp has sought to provide context to Andrade's recent interview, in which the recently released superstar said a WWE doctor mistakenly told her she was pregnant.
Andrade claimed, in his first interview since leaving WWE, that a WWE doctor called her three weeks ago to tell her she was pregnant. Flair would take a number of pregnancy tests, all of which came back negative, but WWE still pulled her from storylines on the road to WrestleMania 37.
Flair's camp has now looked to clarify Andrade's story, saying that while the story is true, some elements have been lost in translation from Spanish to English.
A statement released to Alex McCarthy of TalkSport read:
"What Manny [Andrade] said about the pregnancy test in today’s interview is true, but a significant amount of context is lost in translation and we’d like to clear that up as best we can.
"A few weeks ago, Charlotte received a call from WWE medical telling her that her HCG levels had come back high and she was medically suspended for pregnancy.
"That day, she took several home tests that all came back negative. A few days later, blood work and ultrasound confirmed there was no pregnancy.
"This was before any issues with COVID (she is currently medically clear).
"This put a lot in context for her, mainly how small a woman’s career window is. The men are able to work well into their 50s while the women are seen as “older” in their early 30s even. For an athlete in her prime, these years mean everything.
"Her issue was with the process and how the information was relayed as opposed to the information itself."
