Hailey Bieber Opens Up About Uterine Septum Diagnosis Before Pregnancy

Hailey Bieber, the co-founder of Rhode and 29 years old, has shared her journey of being diagnosed with a uterine septum before conceiving her now 16-month-old son Jack Blues, whom she shares with her 32-year-old husband Justin Bieber.

Speaking on the She MD podcast, Hailey recounted how Dr. Thais Aliabadi had advised caution before she became pregnant.

She explained, "I had a septum in my uterus, and Dr. A kept saying, 'Well, we need to look at this and keep an eye on it before you get pregnant because it could potentially be an issue. I might have to give you a small surgery for it. Not sure.'

"And I was like, 'Okay. Well, I'm not thinking about getting pregnant right now, so we'll just cross that bridge when we get there.' And then I magically got pregnant."

Dr. Aliabadi admitted that her initial reaction was one of alarm. The expert shared, "She calls me, and she's like, 'I'm pregnant!' And I'm like, 'No!'"

The doctor explained that a uterine septum, which affects between one and three percent of women, is a genetic condition where a thin wall forms inside the uterine cavity. Hailey's condition was assessed as moderate, carrying a 25 to 40 percent risk of miscarriage and a 10 to 20 percent risk of preterm delivery.

Hailey reflected, "We realized as the baby was growing, the septum was expanding. Everything was opening and doing what it needed to do, luckily."

The model also shared that she had prepared herself for early labor.

She said, "I was convinced I was going to go into labor early because of my mom's history. But my body had its own plan."

Meanwhile, Dr. Aliabadi conducted the PreTRM Test, an advanced blood test analyzing placental proteins to estimate the delivery risk, which showed a low-risk result for Hailey.

Emma Bunton and Mel B 'reunited in South Korea'
Emma Bunton and Mel B reunited in November to take part in a reality TV show. The 49-year-old pop star and Mel secretly flew to Seoul, South Korea, in late 2024, when they sang alongside K-pop idols for a TV show. A source told The Sun newspaper: "A Spice Girls reunion is a way off. "So having Emma and Mel back on stage singing a Spice Girls song together might be the closest fans get to a comeback, even though it will be with K-pop stars rather than Geri Horner, Melanie C and Victoria Beckham. "They flew to South Korea at the end of last year and were on set for quite a few days as they battled it out with other pop veterans. "With them alone on board, it is a big show. But there’s also Boy George and loads of other chart-topping stars, which will be enough to encourage people to tune in." The reality show will air on Apple TV and will also feature the likes of Megan Thee Stallion and Psy, the 'Gangnam Style' singer. Meanwhile, Melanie recently revealed that she's ready to "start planning" a Spice Girls reunion. The 51-year-old singer would love to reunite with her bandmates to mark the 30th anniversary of 'Wannabe', the group's 1996 hit single. Melanie told Rebecca Judd On Apple Music 1: "There has to be something befitting of 30 years since ‘Wannabe’. "Once a Spice Girl, always a Spice Girl. We all feel like that, but we now are getting together because we know if we're going to do anything, we have to start planning things to get things right. "We have to start making the plans right now and putting them into action. So fingers crossed."
