SZA Discusses Future of Motherhood and Karmic Legacy
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Los Angeles, March 7 (NationPress) Singer-songwriter SZA has opened up about her perspective on motherhood. The 36-year-old artist expressed uncertainty about whether she will become a mother in the future.
In a candid interview with i-D, reported by People magazine, SZA discussed her complex emotions surrounding the topic of parenthood.
She reflected on her own mother's journey, who chose to wait until she felt prepared to have children, giving birth to SZA at the age of 43.
“She can rest knowing that the mitochondrial DNA of every woman that came before her lives through me,” SZA stated.
As noted by Female First UK, she has been contemplating whether she will carry on this legacy.
Additionally, SZA remarked, “I'm bossed up, I'm taking my time. It's spooky out here; maybe I won't have kids. Maybe I will. Do I really want the magic and the love to end with me, or is it the end of a KARMIC cycle?”
In March 2024, during her appearance on the SHE MD podcast, SZA revealed to hosts Thais Aliabadi and Mary Alice Haney that she had approached the idea of fostering and co-parenting with her best friend.
She shared, “I asked my best friend if she would do it with me. She declined because we both have too much on our plates. But I'm going to try to persuade her. She's my bestie, but she's also incredibly smart, so even if we don't end up co-raising a child together, I plan to have her as my 'fake co-parent'.”
SZA was previously engaged to her ex-fiancé, whose name remains undisclosed, for 11 years. Although she seldom discusses her past relationship, she has touched upon it before. In a December interview with Zane Lowe, she revealed that she pursued music largely due to the influence of her former fiancé, who was eight years older and played a significant role in her journey.
