Nearly three months after Heather Rae El Moussa welcomed her first child with hubby Tarek El Moussa, the couple have opened up about their fertility journey.
The couple chatted openly about their IVF experience and what Heather planned to do with the embryos they rescued before finding out they were pregnant. The revelation came when the duo sat down with singer and actress Jennifer Hudson and saw the former menial worker joking that she wanted to have another child with her partner as soon as possible.
Heather Rae El Moussa Shocked Her Husband With Her Plan To Give Birth To A Second Child…Again!
Heather’s road to becoming a birth mother hasn’t been easy, as she and Tarek recently told Jennifer Hudson on the latter’s eponymous show. Her husband started the conversation by explaining:
“We went through the IVF process because we didn’t think Heather could get pregnant. We’ve been through it all, the doctors and the injections, everything.
Although discovering that they had become pregnant naturally filled them with happiness, they kept some of the embryos from their IVF process. For Heather, doing the gesture kept hope alive that they ‘could have another baby’ one day for her.
The news shocked her beau, who quickly regrouped and shared, “I don’t know about that. Maybe. All she wants is good.
Heather later gushed about becoming a mum while also being the stepmother to two children her husband shares with his ex-wife Christina Hall – son Brayden James and daughter Taylor Reese. In the words of the ‘Selling Sunset’ star:
“I didn’t think I was going to be so obsessed with having a baby. And I have two beautiful stepchildren, and they’re amazing, and they made me want to have babies. C It’s like an obsession that I didn’t know could happen, and the female body is the most amazing thing going through it.
While this is the first time she’s publicly acknowledged her stepchildren’s role in her motherhood, it wouldn’t be the first time the model has hinted at wanting more children. Like the explosion previously detailed, she first threw the idea into the mix when she and Tarek unveiled their son Tristan Jay’s nativity scene in the days before he arrived.
“We still have the embryos if we decide to have more in the future,” the 35-year-old beauty began, as Tarek pretended to be shocked by the admission. Heather laughed as she recalled, “He said if we decided to have another one, it just had to be back to back.”
“Yeah, back to back. I am not a spring chicken. I’m going to be 42,” a cheerful Tarek joked back. ‘The Flipping El Moussas’ welcomed their adorable toddler on January 31 and waited a few days before sharing the news with millions of social media followers.
