The 32-year-old singer revealed that she is yet to come to terms with this diagnosis. “I haven't ever said this, but I unfortunately can't carry my own children," she told the publication.

She added: "I'm excited for what that journey will look like, but it'll look a little different. At the end of the day, I don't care. It'll be mine. It'll be my baby."
