Gabrielle Union speaks on her battle to get pregnant, says stop blaming it on her career

Gabrielle Union has revealed she has been struggling to get a baby and hates it when a woman’s career was blamed for her subsequent failure to have a child…

The 42-year-old actress and 33-year-old husband Dwyane Wade, who wed last year, have been open about trying to start a family.

Gabrielle explained on the Today Show

Having a career is not the price that you pay for any ill.’I think TV shows and film kind of make the frigid, you know single-focused career woman, that her career is the root of all of the problems in her life,’ Can’t find a man, it’s the career. Marriage falls apart, it’s the career!…and that’s just not the case.’If you happen to have issues with fertility as you’ve gotten older and you happen to have a career, all is not lost…there are so many options, and you’re not alone.’

However Gabrielle stopped short of revealing how she was being treated, other than to say it was not IVF.

‘I was actually not talking about IVF for me personally, but more of just in general,”Most of my friends who have done IVF aren’t women in their 40’s – women in their 20’s and 30’s
