Taylor and her husband, Cameron Larson, married in 2020, but she hasn’t gotten her “Hallmark happy ending” just yet.
“[I have learned] to surrender to the outcome that will eventually be whatever it is that life has planned for me. It’s all a constant wheel in motion of figuring things out, [but] it’s been really getting rid of chemicals that I will forever live longer and healthier. My [future] kids will be healthier, and future me will thank me for all the sacrifices I made,” she said.
Taylor revealed that she’s undergone in vitro fertilization (IVF) five times and has decided not to move forward with additional treatments, noting the steep cost, around $25,000 per attempt.
“I’m in a full surrender mode at 41, saying, ‘You know what? That spirit will choose me when it’s ready, and if not, it’ll be in another lifetime,’” she said. “I’m here for whatever life brings me.”
Ultimately, Taylor believes that “it is what it is, and it will come when it’s supposed to.”
This isn’t the first time she’s opened up about her infertility journey as the actress has been very open about it on social media.
