Media personality Betty Kyallo has opened up on her pregnancy experience.

Speaking in an interview with Picha Clear Films, the mother of one said the pregnancy came as a surprise to them.

Betty was three years into working at KTN when she knew she was pregnant.

Her daughter Ivanna was born in 2013 before her most publicised wedding to former NTV's investigative journalist Dennis Okari.

"Ivanna's pregnancy came as a surprise since we were planning our wedding then she came earlier than the wedding.

We had to stop our wedding. I realised I was pregnant after I missed my periods."

Betty added that after the tests there was the initial tension wondering what would happen and she had just started her job at KTN.

"My show was doing good but the pregnancy interrupted my career progression at that time. I had to be a bit chill, I stopped doing some things and so on," she said.

"I remember telling Dennis (Okari) that is what it is and sooner than later, we came to terms about it."

She said that the biggest challenge was whether they were going to tell their parents or to get married first.

"Everybody went to their parents and I remember my mum wasn't like really worried since I was already working and I had left her home, she was happy but wished we got married first."

Betty said Dennis was supportive during the whole period of the pregnancy.
