Mom-Of-9 Says She Looks ‘Younger’ Than Her Teenage Kids – But Won’t Be Having More
She loves being a parent: “I love babies.”
A youthful mom surprises people as her age-defying appearance doesn’t seem to hint that she also has 9 kids. Kora Duke who’s now based in Las Vegas, US, spent 12 years since her mid-teens being pregnant and giving birth.
She jokingly told people that she’s been 17 for “22 years” which means that she’s now 39. She gave birth to her youngest when she was 28.
She’s married to Andre, her 42-year-old husband, and they’re raising their 9 kids together with the eldest being Elijah, 21.
The weightlifter has had more experience in pregnancy, birth, and raising kids than your average moms, making her one of the most experienced, first-hand parents there is. But she’s not looking forward to having another child.
“I love babies but I didn’t want to have anymore. Getting my tubes tied was not a difficult choice. I loved being pregnant, but it was scary.”
She told Daily Star, “I would not have more children. My tubes are tied so it would take a miracle to get pregnant. My doctor did an amazing job.”
Health risks became her main reason to stop having more babies in the future.
She shared, “I was consistently getting sick, and having more children would put my health at risk. After each pregnancy, my immune system would get weaker and weaker, and I would get sick constantly.”
“After my last child, I found out I was pre-diabetic and was starting to have thyroid issues. I was also having a lot of hips and lower back problems.”
“My health took a major tumble and I needed to get myself together and build my immunity and strength back up.”
Besides getting her tubes tied, she’s also taking birth control which resulted in her gaining more weight as they affect her hormones. With so many preventions in place, Kora said, “It was perfect for me.”
She admitted that she never planned to have such a big family and was “sick a lot of the time.” She loves feeling a life growing inside her, but now she focuses more on making content online.

Now the mom loves sharing about her parenting journey on TikTok and loves it when people are surprised that she’s 39 with 9 kids, looking 18. Fans love praising her youthfulness and complimented her for building a “beautiful family.”
