[quote=Anonymous]I think it's false to assume that celeb women are immune from fertility issues. Think about your small friend group and how many of them have issues. I know in my close group of 6 friends, 4 had struggles getting pregnant.

My niece was married last year and is constantly getting the "when are you gonna have a kid???" comments at family functions. Little do most know that she has a severe case of endometriosis, a bicornuate uterus, & lost an ovary a few years ago, so her chances of conception are very low. These are not things she wishes to share with random family members who aren't close to her or who she just sees casually. So she just smiles and says "soon, hopefully!" but she and her husband have been trying. They're currently saving up for fertility treatments, too.

Everyone would view her as very healthy from her outward appearance. If she used a surrogate or adopted, people would surely think "oh, she didn't want to ruin her cute figure" or derail her career or something. That's a terrible mindset to have and very ableist. [/quote]
