Selena Gomez says she can’t have children: Have a lot of medical issues
Only Murders in the Building star Selena Gomez has revealed that she can't carry her own children due to several health risks. The 32-year-old said she had planned to start a family by the time she turned 35.
"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," Gomez told the Vanity Fair magazine in the October cover interview.
She was diagnosed with lupus in 2015, a disease where the immune system attacks its own tissues and organs. The next year she was also diagnosed with anxiety and depression. In 2017, she underwent a kidney transplant due to lupus. Later in 2020, the singer-actor was diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
