Adrienne Bailon has been open about the high emotional price she paid on her way to motherhood, and is now sharing the staggering financial investment she made.
The Real Host, 40, who welcomed her son Ever, 20 months via surrogate, with her husband Israel Houghton, 52, estimated they spent 'easily over a million' dollars have a child.
'I only did eight cycles of IVF, but that doesn't include the amount of IUIs (intrauterine insemination) I did and every other kind of imaginable treatments that you could imagine for fertility,' the Secrets singer told People at the pop-up tour for her LA VOÛTE brand in Los Angeles on Saturday.
The Cheetah Girls alum continued: 'So it was a pretty tough six years of trying to have my son.'
Adrienne Bailon, 40, has opened up about the emotional toll having her son Ever took on her family, but the singer has also revealed the staggering cost she and her husband, Israel Houghton, 52, paid on their journey to becoming parents to son Ever, 20 months
Bailon and Houghton married in 2016, and the talk show host admitted she didn't get pregnant as easily as she had hoped.
'I think that as an audience we should be sensitive to the fact that everybody doesn't get pregnant right away,' she said on the show in 2018.
'I think, for myself, I thought it would happen so easily for me and it just hasn't happened that way.'
According to FertilityIQ.com, the average cost of a round of invitro fertilization is around $12,000 to $14,000 per cycle in the US.
For surrogacy, the cost agency fees, surrogate payment, legal fees, the cost of creating embryos and IVF procedures can add up. Synchrony Bank estimates it costs somewhere between $100,000 to $250,000 or more.
When considering the seven-figure expense, the Raven's Home actress admitted that it was 'not realistic for the average person. And I recognize that.'
However, when Bailon welcomed her son, she said the cost, financial, emotional and physical was worth it.
'Our baby boy is here & we are so in love!,' she said announcing his arrival in August 2022 on social media, with a sweet picture as she cuddled her infant son with the proud papa looking on.

Before turning to surrogacy, the Secrets singer said she 'did eight cycles of IVF , but that doesn't include the amount of IUIs (intrauterine insemination) I did and every other kind of imaginable treatments that you could imagine for fertility'
When Bailon and Houghton announced they had welcomed Ever into their family in August 2022, the actress said 'He is worth every tear, every disappointment, every delayed prayer, every IVF cycle, every miscarriage. Everything'
'If you have followed our love story… you know that our journey to baby has been very challenging - But God is true to His word and His promises. We have quietly prayed while sitting on this most magnificent secret for the last 9 months," she shared.
'He is worth every tear, every disappointment, every delayed prayer, every IVF cycle, every miscarriage. Everything,' she stated.
'All we feel is joy and overwhelming love & gratitude,' the proud parents said.
'Grateful to God, to our angel surrogate and to all of our friends and family who have stood with us for over 5 years on this journey. He's here and we have never been happier to lose sleep! #HappilyEverHoughton'
