Bella Robertson is letting fans in.

The television personality, currently wedded to Jacob Mayo, will discuss her battles with fertility in the forthcoming show “Duck Dynasty: Revival”. She has recently disclosed that fielding continual queries about having children on social media is quite challenging for her.

Bella expressed during their interview with Jacob for Us Weekly, published May 21, “I believe some people lack understanding about the topic they’re discussing or the individuals involved. There are aspects of our infertility struggles we haven’t publicly revealed much, but it seems many are unaware of these details.

In a conversation, a 26-year-old remarked, “You can’t truly understand someone’s struggles by merely observing them on social platforms.

In 2021, the newlywed pair opened up about their experiences and insights gained throughout their journey to build a family together, covering both the highs and lows they encountered along the way.

Speaking from personal experience, I’ve come to realize in my marriage that conceiving and raising children isn’t as straightforward as some may portray. Instead of the casual ‘I can just have a child’ or ‘We can choose when we want to start a family’, it’s far more complex than those simple statements suggest. It’s not a matter of making a choice and then having a child; it’s a deeply emotional and intricate process.

He explained, “People often express themselves as if making a statement were effortless or could be avoided, but in reality, it’s more complicated than that.

Bella clarified, “Making this decision wasn’t simple. In fact, I don’t believe we planned to disclose it initially, but it seemed appropriate…This is simply one method through which we’re expressing ourselves genuinely in our new TV series.

After announcing that Bella will be back on TV with Jacob and the rest of their family for the premiere of Duck Dynasty: Revival on A&E, May 28 – eight years since the original series ended in 2017 – the couple gained new understanding.

As I sat down to share this with you all, I must admit it was a challenging choice to make. Initially, we hadn’t planned on disclosing it, but there was an intuitive pull that made us feel it was the right thing to do. This is part of our journey towards authenticity on our brand-new show.

The couple gained new perspective following the revelation that Bella is set to reappear on TV with Jacob, joining their family in the upcoming series Duck Dynasty: Revival, airing on A&E from May 28 – a return eight years after the original Duck Dynasty ended its 11-season broadcast in 2017.

The statement revealed that Willie and Korie, whose influence extends beyond just ducks, would infuse their unique wit and enjoyable family dynamics as they explore the next phase of Duck Commander. They will also guide their children through their respective marriages, parenthood, and entrepreneurial ventures, all while preserving the family tradition.

Ever since the birth of her son Sonny with partner Tim Rosenman in 2017, the former Hills alum has been open about the highs and lows she’s experienced during her fertility journey. This includes discussing her own two pregnancy losses as well as two miscarriages suffered by her surrogate.

In July 2024, Whitney confirmed she’s preparing for a second egg retrieval. 

Following her disclosure that both she and Tim had undergone two failed surrogacy attempts due to the surrogate’s miscarriages, as well as Whitney personally experiencing two pregnancy losses, Whitney revealed in July 2024 that she was getting ready for another egg collection procedure.

As a lifestyle expert, I find myself in a significantly improved position compared to my previous attempt. Having gained some insight into what lies ahead, I’m ready to face the challenges with renewed vigor. Furthermore, I place an unwavering trust and confidence in my medical professional, which adds immense strength to my resolve.

Regardless of the twists and turns on their path to expanding our family, I’ve always made it crystal-clear that our little tribe of three is complete and content, brimming with love and fulfillment.

In her birthday tribute to Sonny, who turned seven in July 2024, she emphasized that their family feels whole as they continue on their journey to expand their family. She wrote that he is a blessing and they enjoy witnessing his growth. They are deeply grateful for his calm demeanor.

 

The actress from “Everything Everywhere All At Once” spoke candidly about the difficulties she faced in attempting to have children with her initial spouse, Dickson Poon, before marrying Jean Todt in 2023 after 19 years of engagement.

In her podcast interview from November 2024, Michelle opened up about her long-held desire to have children. She sought fertility treatments to help achieve this goal. She found the monthly process incredibly challenging, describing it as the lowest point and feeling like a failure each time.

Eventually, I realized it wasn’t fair to keep shouldering the blame. Some aspects of my physique simply don’t work as expected, and that’s just the reality. I had to learn to let go and carry on with life.

The musician, who has a child named Wilde with partner Maximillion Cooper, previously opened up about a tragic pregnancy complication – an ectopic pregnancy – that occurred during the production of her TV show “Eve”.

In her memoir Who’s That Girl?, Eve shared that she discovered she was pregnant in 2006. This led to an urgent operation and a break from filming for two weeks. She admitted that she deceived everyone on set, claiming her appendix had burst. Perhaps it was because I was deceiving myself as well.

As a devoted follower, I can empathize with her sentiment: “If I were in such a situation where I might lose my child, I wouldn’t have known if two weeks could provide the emotional healing I needed.” In reality, those two weeks barely sufficed for my physical recovery before I was back on set. The surgery left me significantly lighter and my body felt incredibly weak.

 

The star from the show “Selling Sunset,” who gave birth to her son Austin at the young age of 15, has openly discussed her and her husband Romain Bonnet’s struggles with fertility.

She informed TopMob News in September 2024 that she couldn’t predict the result because they are simply going along with things as they unfold. She’s currently swamped with her book project, the ongoing season, and various other duties. Consequently, she believes that nothing significant will occur if she’s under pressure or running around.

Apart from having surgery to correct a septate uterus (a condition where the uterus has a dividing membrane), Mary mentioned that she and Romain are taking their time in making decisions, contentedly enjoying their pet dog instead.

As an over-the-moon cat parent, I proudly introduce you to our feline companion, Thor. Yes, I’m smitten with him, and if things don’t work out as planned, I can reassure you that I’ll manage just fine. After all, I have my cherished furry buddy here, and my affection for him knows no bounds. We’re in good hands; whatever fate has in store will unfold naturally.

 

As a lifestyle expert, I’d rephrase it as: In the summer of 2023, I, along with my spouse – the esteemed NFL sportscaster – welcomed our son Mack into our lives. Our path to parenthood has been filled with its fair share of challenges and triumphs, such as navigating through my cervical cancer diagnosis in 2017.

After freezing her eggs prior to her cancer treatment, she subsequently went through In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) in order to conceive a child – an experience she chose to openly discuss with everyone.

She expressed that she had grown weary of staying silent in her 2021 essay. She described the experience as incredibly tough and agonizing. It seemed like she had become almost detached during this time, feeling like a machine on an unfair and often disappointing ride, with the likelihood of receiving unfavorable news being high.

She stated, “I’m an expressive individual, and I can openly discuss my feelings and share how challenging it can be for many couples and families who are struggling with infertility.
