“This is really hard for me to talk about,” she explained at the start of the clip. “I am saddened by the news this morning and it weighs heavy in my heart because I had an abortion when I was 18 years old.”
She continued, “If it wasn’t for places like Planned Parenthood, I would be a mother — and I wouldn’t have been a great mother and I definitely wouldn’t be sitting here today. I got an abortion while I was going through a really huge transition in my life.”
Cheryl went on to say that while she was practicing safe sex and using contraceptives, sometimes “s–t happens” accidentally.
“I was two weeks pregnant when I got an abortion. I remember rolling up to Planned Parenthood with picketers holding anti-abortion signs and that alone was traumatic,” she noted. “But on top of it all, the whole process is traumatic. … I’m happy that I made that decision. I have no regrets. There is no shame behind it.”
“I think I made the right decision [because] I wouldn’t be sitting here [and] I wouldn’t be passionately doing what I love to do if it wasn’t for the right to have an abortion, and this has nothing to do with anybody else,” she added.
She wrote in the caption to her post: “I’m saddened by the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade that guaranteed a woman’s right to choose.” Watch the full video down below.
