Media personality and DJ Lynda Ddane has opened up about the internet rumors about her being HIV positive and how greatly they affected her.
Lynda Ddane, during a YouTube interview with Frank Ntambi, revealed that at one point in her life, she lost a lot of weight due to illness. For a long time, she has had asthma and has been open about her medical condition until it developed into Arrhythmias that greatly affected her weight.
When she showed up in public thinner, a section of netizens significantly criticized her, claiming that she was suffering from HIV/AIDS. She explained that the accusations got to her, affecting her mental health at one point. She, however, got to a point and decided to put her life first by focusing on getting better.
“They were saying I had HIV AIDS, but I have never had it in my life. I focused on fixing my medical issues and not my appearance. It didn’t matter to me because what good is it to look beautiful if you are dead? My health had to come first at that point, and I was working a bit too hard, and everything was a bit too much,” she said.
Lynda explained the challenges experienced to get herself back out there, trying everything possible to regain her weight, including taking weight gain supplements. When she was finally over it, her weight came back, and the internet still judged her for that too.

“But they do not see you crying in the car or at home, because they want you to please everyone, yet there is no actual way of making everyone happy. You might lose weight, and some people are happy while others are not. I gained weight, and they talked. I do not have an explanation for that because that is a bodily thing. I just randomly gained weight after being at peace with myself. My weight just came back when I stopped thinking about it,” she said.
