In the Vanity Fair interview, Gomez said she hadn’t given up hope to have children; she is considering surrogacy or adoption.

Her own mother, Mandy Teefey, is adopted.

"It’s not necessarily the way I envisioned it. I thought it would happen the way it happens for everyone," she mused.

"I’m in a much better place with that. I find it a blessing that there are wonderful people willing to do surrogacy or adoption, which are both huge possibilities for me.

"It made me really thankful for the other outlets for people who are dying to be moms. I’m one of those people."

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.”
