Veteran actress Shaffy Bello has disclosed that she underwent a medical procedure 26 years ago to prevent having more children, citing her desire not to have a large family.

In a conversation on her YouTube channel, Shaffy Bello TV, Bello reflected on her experiences as a mother and family planning choices, revealing that she had her fallopian tubes tied despite her former husband’s wish to expand their family.

“My ex-husband had to beg me to have another one. I didn’t want a lot of children. I wanted to stop,” she said.

According to Bello, the procedure was performed through her navel, effectively stopping the release of eggs required for pregnancy.

“So they went through my navel, went in there, did what they needed to do, and they tied it up. That was it. They closed my eggs,” she said.

She emphasised that she had always been clear about the type of family she wanted and remained firm in her decision.

Bello joked that if she were to become pregnant again after the procedure, she would consider it a miracle.

“I’ve always said to myself that after tying my tubes, if I get pregnant, I will feel like Mary, it’s a holy child,” Bello said. (The Nation)
