Selena Gomez has shared her personal struggle with the inability to carry her own children due to medical issues that could jeopardize her life and that of the baby. In a conversation with Vanity Fair for its October issue, the actress and singer, aged 32, disclosed that she needed time to grieve this reality but has come to a better place. She views surrogacy and adoption as viable options and feels grateful for these alternative paths to motherhood. Gomez, who has been open about her lupus diagnosis in 2015 and bipolar disorder in 2020, understands the potential risks associated with her bipolar medications, which could affect her ability to carry a child. However, she remains hopeful and is looking forward to becoming a mother in the future, regardless of the route she takes.
