    • On Instagram, Kylie Jenner encouraged her followers to practice social distancing and quarantine themselves as the coronavirus pandemic continues.
    • She said concealing her pregnancy with Stormi "prepared" her for quarantine, adding that she "didn't leave the house for months."
    • In a 2018 interview with Vogue Australia, Jenner said her pregnancy was a "sacred special moment" that she "wasn't ready to share" with the world. 

    Kylie Jenner's currently on her 8th day of quarantine amid the coronavirus pandemic; on her Instagram story, she urged her fans to follow suit, posting, "another daily reminder to take this social distancing serious and self quarantine." The youngest Jenner isn't new to self-isolating, she said, comparing the experience to staying indoors while concealing her pregnancy with baby Stormi. "my pregnancy prepared me for this," she wrote. "i didn't leave the house for months."

    A post shared by Kylie 🤍 (@kyliejenner)

    Jenner explained why she kept her pregnancy secret on Instagram, shortly after announcing Stormi's birth in February 2018. "I knew for myself I needed to prepare for this role of a lifetime in the most positive, stress free, and healthy way I knew how. There was no gotcha moment, no big paid reveal I had planned," she shared. "I knew my baby would feel every stress and every emotion so I chose to do it this way for my little life and our happiness."

    In a Vogue Australia interview later that year, Jenner expanded on her decision. "I knew that it would be better for us, if me and Stormi just stayed kind of low-key," she said. "I just felt like it was a sacred special moment and I wasn’t ready to share it with everybody. I just wanted to keep that to myself."
