American singer Selena Gomez admitted that she had difficulty getting pregnant naturally due to many illnesses even though becoming a mother was her biggest dream in life.
Recently, answering Vanity Fair magazine’s October 20024 issue, Selena Gomez said: “Unfortunately, I cannot carry my child. I have many health problems that could threaten my life and the baby’s. I have grieved about this for a long time.”

The singer has shared that she has suffered from complications of Lupus Erythematosus, a disease she has had since 2015. At the same time, she revealed that she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, which caused her mental instability and declining health. This affected her pregnancy and childbirth.

In the interview, the Good for You singer admitted that her health has improved in recent years. However, she is considering surrogacy or adoption. “Both of these things are great for me,” Selena Gomez added.

Selena Gomez is currently happy with her boyfriend – producer Benny Blanco. The two made their relationship public at the end of last year and are not afraid to share sweet moments on their personal pages.

Selena’s friends admit that Selena’s life has become happier since she started dating Benny. The singer has become more positive and hard-working.

Selena Gomez has repeatedly defended her boyfriend against criticism from the audience: “He’s better than anyone I’ve ever dated. That’s the truth.”

Benny Blanco collaborated with Selena Gomez on her hit single ” Single Soon .” He also attended Selena’s birthday party in July 2023 and supported her charity event in Los Angeles in October 2023.

Benny Blanco, whose real name is Benjamin Joseph Levin, is an American music producer, songwriter and rapper. He has achieved much success in the music industry and is one of the important figures behind the famous songs of top music stars such as Katy Perry, Maroon 5, Rihanna, Ed Sheeran…

He is also one of the creators and producers of many of Selena Gomez’s hit songs such as Fetish and Bad Liar.

Last July, the 31-year-old singer also revealed her intention to adopt a child before turning 35. Selena confided: “I was single for about 5 years before dating Benny. I used to feel used to being single. Many people are afraid of being single because they feel lonely.

I myself felt miserable for two years, but then I found being single was acceptable. I planned to adopt before I turned 35, if I didn’t meet the right person.”

In an interview with The Howard Stern Show, when asked about plans to have children with Gomez, Blanco also said: “I talk about this every day. That’s my next goal. I have a lot of godchildren, a lot of nephews. I always love being around kids.”

Selena Gomez has been “nurtured” about having children for several years now. In 2022, the famous singer told Rolling Stone that she had never given up on having children, despite her bipolar disorder medication and health conditions affecting her ability to conceive.

“Having a child is a big, big dream in my life. I want a child. I will do anything to have a child,” Selena Gomez expressed.

It is known that taking medication to treat bipolar disorder affects the ability to conceive, causing birth defects in the fetus of pregnant women. In addition, patients have behavioral and neurological problems when taking medication for a long time.

Selena Gomez was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2018. She began hearing loud voices inside her that grew louder and louder, drowning out the sounds of the real world. So she saw a therapist and spent several months in a mental health facility.

She had to stop working, take time off, and receive treatment for a while. After this period, the female artist was prescribed some medications. Selena Gomez’s condition gradually improved, but she realized that she had used too many drugs and that was extremely dangerous.

Entering the entertainment industry early and becoming a young star in Hollywood before the age of 20, Selena Gomez is now reaching the pinnacle of fame.

The 31-year-old artist is known as an actress, filmmaker, and businesswoman. Billboard music magazine listed Selena among the most successful artists of the 2010s.

Recently, according to Bloomberg’s financial report, Selena Gomez has a net worth of 1.3 billion USD. Of which, 81.4% of the former Disney star’s assets come from profits from the cosmetics brand Rare Beauty, the rest includes music, film, advertising, and income from the mental health care startup Wondermind.

Looking back on her journey, the 31-year-old singer said: “My advice to everyone is don’t be afraid. I’ve never been afraid to say that I need time for myself. I never thought it was a bad thing. Just share honestly. I need a break, you know? I believe I’m being true to myself.”
