SINGER and actress Amira Othman (pic), wife of actor Fattah Amin, has clarified that her recent hospitalisation was due to bronchitis and not pregnancy, as speculated on social media, Kosmo! reported.

Amira, whose full name is Nadia Amira Othman, 32, said she was admitted to the hospital for respiratory problems just days before she and her husband were scheduled to travel to South Korea for filming.

“I was admitted to the hospital because of bronchitis. At that time, I had trouble breathing, so I sought treatment,” she said.

“The doctor advised me not to travel, and after that, pregnancy rumours started circulating. But that’s normal.”

The Hati-Hati singer said similar rumours have followed her since the early days of her career.

“Pray for the best. If there is good news in the future, I will share it when the time is right,” she said.

Amira is now recovering, although she continues to experience a mild cough. This marks the second time she has suffered a bronchitis attack.

“Maybe my body is a bit sensitive, and we never know what environmental conditions we’re exposed to daily. If something is meant to happen, we just accept it,” she said.

Fattah and Amira tied the knot on Sept 14.
