Real Housewives star Candiace Dillard Bassett recently shared an update on her health after giving birth to her first child, son Jack, with husband Chris Bassett. She revealed that she had a blood clot in her left ovary and is now on blood thinners to manage the condition. Despite the health complications, Candiace expressed that seeing her son makes everything worth it.
During the Ebony Power 100 Gala in New York City, Candiace opened up about her postpartum experience, jokingly calling it “ghetto” and emphasizing the challenges she faced during labor. However, she also spoke about the overwhelming joy and transformation that motherhood has brought into her life. She described the feeling as “other-worldly” and admitted to feeling like a new person.
After nearly two months since Jack’s birth, Candiace made her first public appearance at the gala, where she talked about her motherhood journey and the support she received in getting ready for the event. Despite being focused on caring for her newborn, she mentioned that she has not been keeping up with the latest season of RHOP since leaving the show earlier this year.
Candiace expressed that stepping away from the series was necessary for her peace of mind, but she did not rule out the possibility of returning in the future. She shared that she is currently enjoying her time with her baby and adjusting to motherhood, but she wishes her former castmates well on the show.
