Fantástico journalist and TV host Maju Coutinho announced through her social media that she is pregnant. She shared the news alongside her husband, Agostinho Paulo Moura, 61 years old, revealing that the baby's name will be Malik. In a post, she wrote: "First-time mom and third-time dad boarding the private life show."
In an interview on the Saia Justa show, Maju talked about the difficulty of separating personal desire from social pressure regarding motherhood. "The hardest part is separating what is genuinely a wish and what is pressure from a culture that says I have to be a mother?" the host stated.
The journalist revealed that she underwent the egg freezing process and criticized society's lack of preparation to deal with the topic. She recounted that she had to take injections at work without telling anyone, fearing that her boss would think she wanted to get pregnant precisely at the moment she was advancing in her career.
The article reports that, in addition to Maju Coutinho, nine other celebrities have already revealed they underwent the egg freezing procedure. According to the publication, the topic is no longer restricted to medical offices and has appeared more frequently in public spaces and social discussions.
