"It's been a long hard journey. Dealing with the challenges of IVF, our concerns about genetics, and cancer in the family as well as Slade's decision to have a vasectomy over 15 years ago," Rossi continued. "We are so grateful to all those who have supported us and wished us well during this process."
According to a report by Radar Online on Tuesday, Smiley recently underwent a vastectomy reversal surgery, and after a presumably successful outcome, the couple was given clearance by doctors to start trying to conceive naturally.
“I have wanted this since I was a little girl, to be a mother one day,” she said. “And finally now my dream can come true. I would like more than one child, yes. I used to want to have four children I always said. But for now, we will be happy with just one healthy child.”
