Tiffany Haddish, 43, is widely known for her comedic prowess, which has garnered her incredible success as an entertainer. Though Haddish has been living a full life under the glitz and glam of her fame, the “Girls Trip” star has faced many dark times, which she has used as a foundation to create comedic gold.
One such painful experience comes in the form of her most recent revelation that she went through her eighth miscarriage. The 43-year-old, who has been longing to become a mother for years, informed her nurse about her tragedy at a doctor’s appointment on a previous Wednesday.

The actress, who leads a hectic lifestyle filled with an array of guest appearances, filming, traveling, attending A-list events and parties, running charity organizations, and posing for magazines, found time to carve out space to speak with her doctors about her fertility misfortunes. As the nurse asked her if she was ok, Haddish revealed:
“Well, I’m going to be honest with you; this would be my eighth one. I’ve got a uterus shaped like a heart. It just won’t keep anything in.”

In the interview in which she candidly spoke about her miscarriage, it was also mentioned that Haddish had taken parenting classes in the previous year. She had hoped that her concerted and preparatory efforts would help her stand a good chance at adoption. However, her feelings remain conflicted over motherhood because of the tough childhood she experienced.
The reason behind her apprehension is because of the vast difference between her past life of hopping from different foster homes and the abuse she endured and her current life, which though successful, keeps her exceptionally busy. Coupled with her internal conflict comes the lawsuit she faced not too long ago and dealing with the devastating loss of her beloved grandmother. Though the news of her miscarriage became public knowledge recently, the star had only informed a close friend when it first happened because:

Tiffany Haddish Opened Up about Family Planning and Why Surrogacy Isn’t the Right Option for Her
Before opening up about her recent misfortune, Haddish previously spoke about her perceptions surrounding her overall potential journey to motherhood and family planning. The “Night School” talent, who was still dating famous American rapper Common at the time, divulged how she desired to adopt children aged five and up on a podcast where her then-beau joined her.
Haddish explained that she wanted to foster or adopt kids who already knew how to use the restroom alone and could talk. The comedian also expressed how she wanted to be able to teach the potential children she considered adopting survival skills and share everything she has learned throughout her life with them as well.

In another interview, Haddish conversed about a personal decision she made regarding her fertility when she was younger, which was done out of need and urgency. While speaking on what happened, she disclosed:
“When I was 21, I was really hard up with money and gave up a bunch of eggs. So who knows, I might got some kids out in these streets. I doubt it though because I never got the bonus.”

Additionally, when talking about the likelihood of her pursuing surrogacy as a viable way to have a baby, the star addressed how she felt about the option. Haddish explained:
“I don’t want to pay nobody to carry my baby neither because then I have to go through a process of giving myself injections and all that stuff.”

The ending of her past relationship with Common, which went public in the summer of 2020, was reported as a mutual and amicable break-up. When disclosing the reasons behind their split, the “I Used to Love H.E.R.” singer cited the incompatibility between their divergent and hectic working schedules, resulting in the former pair being unable to spend enough time with each other. However, after Haddish had seen what her ex said about why their relationship fizzled, she reported:

Though she chose not to include her own reasons as to why she believes the break-up occurred for the sake of privacy, Haddish believes Common to be the type of person to never have the desire to settle down with someone. She further likened the rapper to a bee hopping from flower to flower.
