Selena Gomez has revealed that she will never be able to carry her own children due to several medical issues, but she also said that adoption or surrogacy are definite options for her.

In an interview with Vanity Fair, the 32-year-old actress opened up about her desire to be a mother but admitted her path “will look a little different” after being diagnosed with the auto-immune disease Lupus in 2015 followed by bipolar disorder in 2020.

“I haven’t ever said this … but I unfortunately can’t carry my own children,” Gomez said. “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…”

“[But] I’m in a much better place with that,” she added. “I find it a blessing that there are wonderful people willing to do surrogacy or adoption, which are both huge possibilities for me.”

“It made me really thankful for the other outlets for people who are dying to be moms,” Gomez continued. “I’m one of those people. I’m excited for what that journey will look like, but it’ll look a little different. At the end of the day, I don’t care. It’ll be mine. It’ll be my baby.”

The “Only Murders In The Building” star previously talked about her dreams of being a mother and admitted that taking the bipolar medications she was on most likely meant she wouldn’t be able to carry children, though she hesitated to go as far as what she said to VF.

The “Wizards of Waverly Place” star also opened up about her relationship with ​​boyfriend Benny Blanco, who she’s confirmed dating since December 2023, People magazine noted.

“I’ve never been loved this way…He’s just been a light,” Gomez told VF of her beau. “A complete light in my life. He’s my best friend. I love telling him everything.”

The superstar actress and singer recently made headlines when it appeared she made comments about the possibility that her music career is coming to an end.

During the singer’s appearance on the latest “Smartless” podcast, Gomez talked about how she has “one more album” in her before she closes the door on her singing career, E! News reported. 

“I started having a lot of fun with music and then touring was really fun,” the pop singer said. “But I was doing my TV show [‘Wizards of Waverly Place’] at the same time, and I just found it really fun, so I just kept going.”

“But the older I get, the more I’m kind of like, ‘I would like to find something to just settle on,” she added. “I do feel like I have one more album in me, but I would probably choose acting. I am gonna wanna chill because I’m tired.”
