They sell late motherhood as something natural, but behind it are treatments that cost what many women do not earn in years, without mentioning the risks that come with a “geriatric pregnancy”

Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman, Naomi Campbell, Salma Hayek, Eva Mendes, Mariah Carey, Halle Berry, Janet Jackson, Pilar Rubio, Anne Hathaway and Natalie Portman: all became mothers after 40, some even after 46.

A triumph of science or a dangerous whim? 😱🤰 More and more celebrities are defying biology to become mothers after 40. Although show business sells it as a fairy tale, medicine classifies these cases as “geriatric pregnancies” or advanced maternal age, warning of a harsh reality: a high risk of preeclampsia, gestational diabetes and chromosomal abnormalities for the baby.

While on social media they are harshly criticized and accused of “being too old” to raise a child, they defend their right to choose through costly fertility treatments. Is it empowerment or medical Russian roulette? 💥
