“Every Birthday Hurt a Little More”: Love Is Blind’s Natalie Lee FREEZES Her Eggs After Years of Disappointment, Says She’s Done Letting Love Delay Her Dream of Being a Mom

In a brutally honest confession that’s sure to resonate with women everywhere, Love Is Blind alum Natalie Lee is finally saying what she’s kept inside for years: she’s tired of waiting — for the right man, the right timing, or the perfect story. And this time, she’s choosing herself.

During a heartfelt interview, Natalie opened up about the emotional weight of approaching her 30s, single, and still longing for motherhood.

"I Used to Think Love Came First — Until It Didn’t"

“For the longest time, I believed I had to wait,” Natalie admitted. “Wait for love, wait for a ring, wait for someone to choose me. But every year, especially on my birthday, that wait got heavier. Every birthday hurt a little more.”

After a string of failed relationships and broken promises — some of them playing out publicly — Natalie realized she couldn’t let someone else’s indecision hold her back from the life she wanted.

A Dream That Couldn’t Be Delayed Any Longer

While many Love Is Blind fans know Natalie for her composure and grace, she revealed that behind the scenes, she was battling intense grief — not over lost love, but lost time.

“I would sit alone and wonder: What if I run out of time? What if the thing I want most slips away while I wait for someone else to be ready?”

That fear turned into action. Natalie froze her eggs earlier this year, calling it the most empowering decision she’s ever made.

“This isn’t about giving up on love. It’s about not putting my happiness on hold for it.”

A Future on Her Own Terms

Natalie says the process wasn’t just medical — it was emotional. A reckoning. A reclamation of power after years of being made to feel like she was too much, too picky, or too late.

“I may not have the traditional love story — yet. But I’m writing my own version, and it starts with choosing myself.”

While she still hopes to fall in love again, Natalie’s made peace with the fact that a woman doesn’t need a partner to live a full, beautiful, and deeply meaningful life.

And when the time comes for her to become a mother?

“I’ll be ready. On my own terms. With or without a man beside me.”

One thing’s for certain: Natalie isn’t waiting anymore — she’s building the life she deserves, one choice, one risk, and one dream at a time.
