Whitney Port and her husband Tim Rosenman are “on a positive trajectory” in their surrogacy journey, according to the reality star’s latest podcast update — but she admits the emotional rollercoaster continues after multiple losses and failed transfers.
Whitney Port, the beloved former The Hills star, shared an emotionally raw update on her ongoing fertility journey during Friday’s episode of her “With Whit” podcast. Alongside her husband, Tim Rosenman, she revealed that their legal surrogacy contract has been finalized — but the next steps involve high-stakes medical procedures and intense emotional vulnerability.
“The surrogacy journey is on a positive trajectory,” Port said candidly. “We just signed our contract and are now awaiting next steps for a transfer, but it’s hard to explain unless you’re in it.” Her tone was both hopeful and weary — a reflection of the complex emotions swirling around this chapter of her life.
Port and Rosenman welcomed their son Sonny in 2017 before grappling with secondary infertility. After suffering multiple pregnancy losses, the couple decided in 2023 to pursue gestational carrier options — a decision that has brought them closer to parenthood while simultaneously exposing them to profound disappointment.
“It’s hopeful and it’s exciting, but it’s also tiring and exhausting,” Port explained. “You have all the hope in the world and you want to spread all this positive energy, but you’ve also had such failures that it’s hard for you to imagine anything going right.” This duality defines their current experience — each day feels like walking a tightrope between optimism and grief.
Since beginning their search for a surrogate, Port and Rosenman have worked with several carriers — many of whom also experienced miscarriages after embryo implantation. “Some days I feel fragile, other days I feel scared,” Port admitted. “Most days I feel, like, ‘Let’s go, let’s do this,’ and most of the time, I feel all of it in the same hour.”
Their latest milestone — signing a contract — marks the end of the legal phase and the beginning of the scientific one. “Now it becomes a little more of the science-y, nerve-wracking part,” Port described. “We’ll schedule a transfer in the next one to two months and just cross our fingers. We have three embryos left, and they’re all boys. I’ve kind of told myself right now, ‘If these three don’t work, we’re probably not going to continue to try.’”
Port emphasized her belief in manifestation — visualizing success and projecting positivity — but acknowledged the need for mental preparedness. “I also don’t want to be getting too ahead of myself or even visualizing or thinking about the fact it’s not going to work, like, that doesn’t help the situation at all,” she said. “I’m a firm believer in manifesting and visualizing something and throwing positive energy out on it.”
Yet, logic and realism still tug at her resolve. “Like, ‘You have to have a plan and an idea in our head of when you will be ready for this journey to be over,’” she noted. “I think there will be some sort of actual tangible thing that will put an end on this… because so far, we’ve just kind been going, going, going and just seeing how far we can take it.”
If the final three embryos fail to implant successfully, Port remains uncertain whether she’ll attempt another egg retrieval cycle — a process she describes as emotionally and physically draining. “I just don’t know that I could go through another egg retrieval situation,” she confessed. “My eggs, year after year, after just getting fried and fried and fried to go through that process, get 21 eggs and then be able to get one maybe-healthy embryo. Part of me wants that chapter to be put [to the side] when we go through all the different scenarios.”
For fans who followed Port’s story since her reality TV heyday, this update isn’t just personal — it’s deeply human. Her honesty about navigating loss, hope, and the relentless pressure of motherhood resonates across generations. The public’s empathy has grown alongside her journey — especially as she openly shares the physical and emotional toll of reproductive struggles.
While Port’s path is unique, she joins a growing roster of celebrities who’ve spoken candidly about fertility challenges — from Chrissy Teigen to Meghan Markle — making her voice both relatable and empowering. Her story reminds us that motherhood isn’t always linear — sometimes, it requires courage, patience, and the willingness to lean into uncertainty.
As Port and Rosenman prepare for their next medical appointment, the world watches — not just for the outcome, but for the strength it takes to keep moving forward despite repeated setbacks.
