Selena Gomez opens up about inability to carry children naturally.
Singer Selena Gomez revealed in a recent interview that she is unable to carry children naturally due to medical complications from her battle with lupus and kidney transplant surgery.
In a candid conversation with Vanity Fair, the 32-year-old artist shared that she had to grieve the inability to get pregnant after realizing the risks it posed to both her and the baby’s life.
Gomez said it was difficult to accept initially that her motherhood journey would be different than most people envision.
However, she has now come to terms with it and finds solace in the possibilities of surrogacy and adoption to start a family.
The Who Says hitmaker remarked gratefully on the advances allowing women struggling with fertility to become mothers through other means.
Expressing her excitement about the future, Gomez said regardless of the challenges, any child will be hers and that is what ultimately matters to her.
The singer, who has dated record producer Benny Blanco since July 2023, reflected on prioritizing family after being single for five years except for a few dates.
