As some of you may remember, Maria Menounos has been through a lot medically. In 2017, she had a benign meningioma brain tumor removed, which resulted in a fairly long recovery.
Then, in 2022, it was revealed she had pancreatic cancer. Thankfully, it was one of the less aggressive forms of pancreatic cancer and it was only at stage two.
She was able to make a full recovery, but after all her body had been through, doctors told her she shouldn’t risk getting pregnant. This led Maria and her husband Keven Undergaro down the surrogacy route in 2023, welcoming their first baby girl.
And while most everyone in her life was happy for her, Maria revealed there was one friend she had to cut out of her life due to her negativity.
This is somebody who was so sweet and I loved. She said to my husband, ‘What do you mean she can’t carry? That doesn’t make any sense.’ “And he goes, ‘Her neurosurgeon – the top neurosurgeon in the world — said she can’t carry.’ And she was like, ‘I don’t get it. It just doesn’t make any sense.’ I was like, ‘Oh I don’t ever want to talk to you again.’
She talked about all this on the Women in the Nude podcast.
It’s one thing to be judged by outside people who don’t know and don’t get it. But you actually know me, and you know what we’ve gone through. For you to even say anything so judgmental is just crazy to me.
We fully support Maria’s decision to cut that toxic friend out of her life!
