Celebrities Shout Their Abortions As ‘Roe v. Wade’ Finally Dies

The overturning of Roe v. Wade on June 24, 2022 was a cause for celebration for pro-lifers across the country who’ve been fighting for the rights of the unborn for close to 50 years. But the historic Supreme Court decision also caused pro-abortion activists to ramp up their rhetoric, making a permanent move from the “safe, legal, and rare” slogan into a full-blown “shout your abortion” landscape.

And no one is shouting louder than celebrities. Recording artists, Academy Award-winning leading ladies, reality stars, comedians, and all other versions of famous women have been sharing their abortion stories for years. The Dobbs decision has caused them to increase their efforts, however, to radicalize fans to fight for the right to abortion. Celebrities are glorifying abortion and insisting they wouldn’t be rich and famous without killing their unborn children.

Conversations about abortion began before the ruling became official when a draft opinion got leaked and sparked outrage across the Hollywood community. The liberal hosts of “The View” were furious about it, including moderator Whoopi Goldberg, who discussed having an abortion at 14, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

“It is a hard, awful decision that people make,” Goldberg said during the May 5 episode. “If you don’t have the wherewithal to understand that, to start the conversation with, ‘I know how hard this must be for you,’ if you’re starting it by telling me I’m going to burn in hell, then you’re not looking out for me as a human being, whether I subscribe to your religion or not, and that is not OK.”

Goldberg took heat for saying, “my doctor, and myself and my child — that’s who makes the decision.” Some followers found  it strange that the child would make the choice to die.

“Women, when they decide something is not right for them, they’re going to take it into their own hands,” the 66-year-old comedian continued. “We got tired of tripping over [other] women in public bathrooms who were giving themselves abortions because there was nowhere safe, nowhere clean, nowhere to go.”

 Another voice advocating loudly for abortion is comedian and late-night host Chelsea Handler. The 47-year-old podcast host has admitted that she has had two abortions and regrets nothing.

“I’m speaking from experience on all of this as someone who had three abortions in high school, and if that sounds too extreme, let’s pretend I had two,” she said during a monologue just after the Supreme Court decision was handed down.

“Because here’s the thing: this planet is a much safer place without me polluting it with my children,” Handler continued. “I’m responsible enough to know that we don’t need any more pothead Molly-loving alcoholics running around topless. I get that.”

In a 2016 essay in Playboy, Handler wrote:  “Of course, the idea that I would have a child and raise it by myself at that age when I couldn’t even find my way home at night, was ridiculous. My parents recognized that, so they acted like parents for one of the very first times in my life and took me to Planned Parenthood,” she shared. “And when it was over, I was relieved in every possible way.”

“Getting unintentionally pregnant more than once is irresponsible, but it’s still necessary to make a thoughtful decision,” she continued. “We all make mistakes all the time. I happened to f*** up twice at the age of 16. I’m grateful that I came to my senses and was able to get an abortion legally without risking my health or bankrupting myself or my family.”

Another example of a celebrity “shouting” their abortion is actress Alyssa Milano, who has become an outspoken political activist. The 49-year-old “Who’s the Boss?” star said she had  two abortions in 1993 after becoming pregnant while using birth control.

“I chose. It was my choice, and it was absolutely the right choice for me,” she continued. “It was not an easy choice. It was not something I wanted, but it was something that I needed. Like most health care is,” she said, per THR.

Milano argues that her life would be less enjoyable if she hadn’t killed those unborn children.

“My life would be completely lacking all its great joys. I would never have been free to be myself and that’s what this fight is about: freedom,” she insists. “Freedom from oppression, freedom for women to have the audacity to be equally sexual beings as men; freedom for women to live the life they were meant to have, not just the life that is thrust upon them by a pregnancy.”

While some celebrities claim to have no regrets about their abortions, others feel guilt and sorrow thinking about the experience while simultaneously insisting it was worth it.

Golden Globe winner Uma Thurman said in a Washington Post essay, “[The abortion] caused me anguish then and that saddens me even now, but it was the
