In a transparent revelation, rapper and actress Eve has opened up about a deeply personal and challenging chapter of her life. In her new memoir, Who’s That Girl?, Eve shares the story of her ectopic pregnancy while filming her sitcom in 2006, a secret she kept hidden for years. Eve’s ectopic pregnancy occurred during a pivotal time in her career. She was filming her eponymous sitcom, and the unexpected medical emergency forced her to take a break from the set. Instead of sharing the truth, Eve told her colleagues that she had suffered a ruptured appendix. Reflecting on this decision, she admits, "I don’t know why I lied to everyone on set and said that my appendix had ruptured, really. Maybe because I was lying to myself". The experience took a significant emotional toll on Eve. She describes the period as one of denial and immense personal struggle. “For years, I never grieved losing my first baby. I didn’t know how to, but I eventually learned,” she shares

in her memoir. The rapper explains that she had to come to terms with her loss, forgive herself, and acknowledge the existence of her baby to begin the healing process. Eve’s journey to motherhood was fraught with challenges, including struggles with endometriosis and fibroids. Despite these obstacles, she found joy in the birth of her son, Wilde, in 2022. “Having my son has a lot to do with feeling like I can talk about this past stuff, because here is literally my future,” she says. Today, Eve is focused on giving her son the childhood she never had. She lives in London with her husband, Maximillion Cooper, and their blended family. Eve’s story is a testament to her resilience and the power of confronting and sharing one’s truth. Eve’s candidness about her ectopic pregnancy and fertility struggles offers hope and solidarity to many women facing similar challenges. Her journey reminds us that healing is possible, and that sharing our stories can be a powerful step towards recovery.
