Gabrielle Union Suffered ‘Eight or Nine’ Miscarriages

gabrielle union miscarriage

Gabrielle Union opened up to People magazine about her infertility and failed IVF treatments.

“I have had eight or nine miscarriages. For three years, my body has been a prisoner of trying to get pregnant — I’ve either been about to go into an IVF cycle, in the middle of an IVF cycle, or coming out of an IVF cycle.” – Gabrielle Union

When it comes to people asking her if she wants kids, Gaby finds the question to be harmful and frustrating.

“For so many women, and not just women in the spotlight, people feel very entitled to know, ‘Do you want kids?’” she says. A lot of people, especially people that have fertility issues, just say ‘no’ because that’s a lot easier than being honest about whatever is actually going on. People mean so well, but they have no idea the harm or frustration it can cause.” – Gabrielle Union

The actor will be sharing more about her struggles in her new memoir, We’re Going to Need More Wine.

  1. Coke ho, stank, white wannabe, bearding loser. Consider all unborn kids lucky.

  2. 8 or 9 times is messing up your body so that if you WERE to get pregnant, you may not be able to keep it because your uterus has gone through hell trying to have a rich baby.

  3. A blind item on another site says the major reasons for her miscarriages are heavy drug usage and an eating disorder.

    • That makes sense.

      She was raped so her mental issues/stress levels probably don’t help either.

    • This makes a whoooole lotta sense. Please add on being in your 40’s as well…

  4. What has she experienced physically before that is contributing to the current problem. Abortions and STD’s play a role. Also psychologically she has never wanted a child before and now she does. The body protects itself at times. She should just go for a surrogate.

    • I thought she had said similar as well. She made the confession of not wanting kids many times- including when she first married D Wade.

    • In the article above, didn’t she state that she told people that she didn’t want children because it was easier to answer the question that way? Didn’t she just say that it was more complicated to answer such a question with a, “yes”??? While I think she should have found a more creative way of answering without actually lying, reading IS fundamental…

    • I’m saying, maybe she is trying to publicize her reasons for opt-out for a sacrafice… idk. things that make you go hmmm. Putting ones punany on public display in any fashion is just so cavebitch-ish.

  5. Karma is a bitch!
    Gabby & DWade did his first wife very dirty. She was sleeping with a married man, then helped taunt his ex-wife by parading around with her kids.
    Gabby is a bitch. She deserves everything she gets…
