Singer and actress Selena Gomez is one of the most successful women around the world yet she also has to go through some significant turmoil in life. She is best known for giving life updates to her fans and she has been always vocal about her health issues. Recently, she revealed that her physical health makes it difficult to carry a child of her own.
The 32-year-old versatile persona said, “I haven’t ever said this, but I unfortunately can’t carry my own children. I have a lot of medical issues that would put my life and the baby’s in jeopardy. That was something I had to grieve for a while.”
Although the singer has not specifically mentioned what her medical condition is that prevents her from carrying her own child, fans already know that she has suffering from lupus for a long time. It is an autoimmune disease that directly attacks different organs of the body. She was diagnosed with lupus in 2015 and in the year 2017, the artist also had to go through a kidney transplant in order to fight the disease.
Other than her struggles with lupus, she has been also going through a lot due to her mental health issues including the effects of depression, anxiety, and bipolarity. After going through a serious psychotic episode, the artist was diagnosed with mental health issues in 2020. In 2022, Gomez shared in an interview that the neurological medications she has been prescribed for bipolarity can create complications for her pregnancy which is unsafe.
Despite the health challenges, Gomez has a strong will to become a mother. She has expressed her desire for adoption. She also said that adoption is the key to her family history and she might continue the legacy. The singer said, “I probably wouldn’t be here. I don’t know what life would’ve been like. She and I are very thankful for how life played out.”
However, life comes with a lot of changes and sometimes it can be very positive. Selena Gomez is doing quite better now both, mentally and physically as well as emotionally. She said, “It’s not necessarily the way I envisioned it. I thought it would happen the way it happens for everyone.”
She further added, “I’m in a much better place with that. I find it a blessing that there are wonderful people willing to do surrogacy or adoption, which are both huge possibilities for me.” Evidently, she is taking life quite positively and gaining at it!
