Selena Gomez Reveals She Will Never Be Able to Carry a Baby

Selena Gomez has admitted that she will never be able to have children of her own.

Selena has always been very open about her health complications. She suffers from lupus, an autoimmune disease that required her to undergo a kidney transplant. She is also bipolar and will have to take medication for the rest of her life.

She has come to terms with her situation and is grateful for everything she has. “I feel so much better because of it. I feel so blessed that there are wonderful people willing to go through surrogacy or adoption, which are huge opportunities for me.”

“It really made me appreciate the other avenues of communication available to people who are dying to become mothers. I’m one of those people,” she said.

Selena said that now that she has accepted her situation, she is excited to see what her journey to motherhood will look like.

“It’ll be a little different. At the end of the day, I don’t care. It’ll be mine. It’ll be my baby,” she said.

She told Vanity Fair: “Unfortunately, I can’t carry my own children. I have a number of health issues that would put my life and the baby’s life in danger. I had to grieve for a while.”

Her own mother was adopted and Selena has always said she would be open to the idea of ​​starting her own family through adoption.

The revelations come as Selena hit the red carpet at the Toronto Film Festival, where she attended the premiere of Emilia Perez, a Spanish-language French musical crime comedy starring Zoe Saldana.
