Eve has been trying to get pregnant for years. During his stint as a co-host of The Talk, she opened up about her fertility struggles.

“As a woman, you just think things happen naturally and I felt like I was damaged,” she said in 2019. “I felt like I was broken. I felt like, oh well maybe I’m not good enough.”

Eve left her job at The Talk in late 2020. She exited the show with the intention of “expanding her family.”

The 42-year-old rapper married Maximillion Cooper in 2014. She became a stepmother to his four children from a previous relationship.

Although she’s experienced motherhood with her stepchildren, Eve made it well known she wanted to have a baby. Now, she will get to experience the miracle of childbirth for herself.

Eve is currently starring in the new ABC series Queens. The show is scheduled to premiere on October 19.
