Monica Lewinsky Explains Why She ‘Probably’ Won’t Have Kids, How the Decision ‘Changed’ How She Dates

Monica Lewinsky is opening up about whether she may bring children into the world one day.

The activist, 52, appeared on the Tuesday, March 24, episode of the The Jamie Kern Lima Show, and was asked by the podcast host, 48, if she thinks she’ll have kids since she froze her eggs.

“Probably not,” Lewinsky replied, revealing, “Some days I do, and some days I don’t.”

“I don’t know. I have no idea how women like you and some of our other friends … I don’t know how you all do everything you do,” Lewinsky admitted. “And you’re also mothers, and you’re spouses. I have no clue. It takes all of my energy to just show up and be me, just me looking after myself, so I don’t know how you all do it.”

“I have had some extraordinary, unbelievable miracles in my life. And I am very grateful for them. And if I don’t get any more, I’m good,” she added. “If I get more, amazing. And that’s really sort of where I feel where I’m at.”

Lima also asked Lewinsky whether she would enter a “serious relationship,” to which the television producer responded, “I’m not sure.”

“I think there are a lot of personal things that I have worked on for a long time, and the shifts there feel like millimeters at a time,” she remarked. “I just, I don’t know. I feel really grateful that I’m OK with that. Sometimes I feel I want that more than other times.”

Additionally, Lewinsky shared that her outlook on having kids has impacted her romantic pursuits.

“I think moving past having kids, the idea of having kids, at least naturally, that really changed what I was looking for,” she reflected. “It changed what I felt I really needed in my life.”
