Selena Gomez has stated that she will examine other choices, such as surrogacy or adoption, in the event that she becomes pregnant. She has also disclosed that her health condition may have an impact on both her and her unborn child in the event that she becomes pregnant.
After having previously disclosed her intentions to start a family before to beginning a relationship with her current boyfriend, Benny Blanco, Selena recently gave an interview to Vanity Fair in which she discussed her aspirations to one day have a family of her own.
I have never before stated this, but I am unable to bear my own children. I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. There are a number of medical problems that I have that could put both my life and the life of the baby in danger. I had to go through a period of mourning over that particular object.
Additionally, she stated, “It is not necessarily the way that I envisioned it.” At first, I figured it would occur in the same way that it does for everyone else. However, I am in a much better position with regard to it. The fact that there are amazing people who are willing to perform surrogacy or adoption, both of which are enormous possibilities for me, is something that I consider to be a blessing.
It made me really grateful for the alternative opportunities that are available to people who are eager to become mothers. Count me among those individuals. I can’t wait to see what that journey will be like, but I already know that it will be a little bit different. By the end of the day, I don’t give a damn about it. Yes, I will have it. It will be my little one.”
Earlier in the interview, Selena had been candid about her intentions to begin a family by the time she is 35 years old. The fact that she disclosed that her mother was adopted indicates that she has not completely disregarded the possibility of having a child.
“I was single for five years before I met my boyfriend, with the exception of going on a few dates,” she added. “I don’t know if I ever went on a date.” On the other hand, I was thinking to myself, “Okay, if this is the vibe, then what is the most important thing to me?” The family.'”
Selena mentioned that she frequently contemplates the circumstances surrounding her mother’s adoption and the outcomes that would have occurred if she had not been adopted. The likelihood is that I wouldn’t be here. Who knows what her life would have been like if she had lived it. Both she and I are quite grateful for the way that life has transpired.
In an interview with Rolling Stone in 2022, Selena made her first mention of the potential adverse effects that her medicine could have on pregnancy. She explained that she was still hopeful about having children despite the potential risks.
Selena Gomez and her boyfriend Benny Blanco engage in a game of Who is Most Likely To.
The founder of Rare Beauty, who recently achieved billionaire status, mentioned that she is currently taking two medications for her bipolar disorder. This situation has made it unlikely for her to have children of her own, which she considers to be a significant aspect of her life.
She confidently stated, “No matter what it takes, I will have them.”
Selena has been open about her struggles with bipolar disorder and the autoimmune disease Lupus, which she faces. She made the decision to take a break from her career in 2015 to address the difficulties with anxiety and depression that her lupus diagnosis had exacerbated. The pop star-turned-actor also underwent a kidney transplant in 2017, which was also due to lupus.
Her friend Francia Raisa generously donated her kidney to Selena, and the women have maintained a strong friendship to this day, even though there was a brief period of speculation about their relationship.
