The pregnant former “Hills” star revealed her thoughts about vaccinations during a Fox Business interview on Thursday and during “Fox & Friends” on Friday morning she further explained her choice and discussed the “harsh response” she’s received from fans.
“You know, it’s not something that I wanted to publicly come out and say… I was in an interview when it came up and it wasn’t what I was expecting.
