Steph Curry’s mom says she once considered having an abortion when she was pregnant with the NBA star.
“It was healing to tell the story in the book,” she said on Bleav’s Your Mom podcast. “Because I know there’s lots of people out there — men and women — I know it really comes down to the woman’s body, but there are men out there that are trying to be partners in making this kind of decision. There’s partners out there that don’t even get a say in that because it just happens and they don’t ever know about it.”
Sonya shares three children with former NBA star Dell Curry. Steph is the eldest of the three.
“But, the simple fact that people are having to make this decision every single day, every second of the day out there, that we’ll never know about,” she added. “For me to be able to share that story for people to know, one, so many people are struggling with it, and it’s OK. It’s OK that you are struggling with it. Two, the decision that I made to keep him at that point is also counter with the decision that I made to not carry through with the previous pregnancy.”
