Sanya Richards won the Olympics gold medal after an abortion

In her captivating memoir, 'Chasing Grace: What the Quarter Mile Has Taught Me About God and Life', Sanya revealed a deeply personal secret. Just days before her remarkable performance at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, where she secured a coveted gold medal for her performance in the relay race, she made the difficult decision to have an abortion. Sanya candidly shared that the fear of potential repercussions compelled her to keep the situation private. During that challenging time, Aaron, her boyfriend at the time, couldn't be there to support her as he was engrossed in training camp. Though the procedure itself was swift, the emotional turmoil it caused lingered far longer. Sanya bravely opened up about the arduous journey she undertook to heal from this experience.

Why did Sanya Richards not want a child before?

During the previous season of 'RHOA', Sanya had a heartfelt conversation with her husband Aaron Ross. They discussed the future of their family, as Aaron expressed his desire to give their son Aaron Jermaine Ross II (nicknamed Deuce) a sibling. However, with Aaron frequently traveling for their car service business, Sanya expressed uncertainty about whether it's the right time or even feasible for them to expand their family. "I feel like we have this big dream for our family, and I also want more children, but sometimes it feels like just a dream. I question what's realistic for the Rosses," Sanya shared, her eyes welling up with tears during a heartfelt dinner with her husband. She admitted, "I struggle with it because I constantly feel overwhelmed. Even with ten people around, I don't feel like I have the support I need to be my best."
