Whitney Port, known for her role on reality TV, is sharing her struggles with fertility in a candid interview with PEOPLE.
The 39-year-old mom opens up about the challenges she and her husband, Tim Rosenman, have faced while trying to expand their family after welcoming their son, Sonny Sanford, in 2018.
Port reveals that their journey to conceive a second child has been difficult, with multiple miscarriages along the way. She shares her experience of seeking help from a fertility specialist and even exploring surrogacy, which also presented its own set of challenges.
In a video series called “Fertility, Unfiltered” with Perelel, Port documents her journey of undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF), a process she had not previously shared publicly. She expresses the emotional toll of the difficult losses they have faced and the uncertainty of what the future holds.
Despite the challenges, Port remains hopeful and advocates for open conversations about fertility struggles, noting the importance of sharing resources and support. She credits Perelel for being a valuable support system and connecting her with the necessary medical professionals.
Through it all, Port emphasizes the importance of self-care and being present in the moment, especially with her son, Sonny, whom she adores.
She acknowledges the pressure and uncertainties that come with fertility treatments but urges others to give themselves grace and take the time to make informed decisions.
