It’s possible that Whitney will become more motivated to have a baby now that she has lost Henchi. She may want to complete the donor selection process quickly and become pregnant in the near future. In the past, Whitney had mentioned that she allowed her loved ones to make decisions on her behalf.

She had mentioned that she had a few potential candidates but hadn’t made a final decision. Instead, she wants her family and friends to help her choose the right sperm donor.
