Katherine Heigl Cant Quit Smoking, So Shes Adopting a Baby From Korea
Greys Anatomy star Katherine Heigl, who has been trying to quit smoking forever, is trying to adopt a baby from Korea. Not cause she cant quit smoking (it would be real irresponsible if she was even thinking about getting pregnant now) but because of her sister. Sweet story: Katherines older sister, Meg, was adopted as a baby from Korea.
Meg has had a profound impact on Katherines life, which is why she and Josh are trying to adopt a Korean child, a friend close to the couple revealed.
Theyve chosen an adoption agency and have started filing the necessary paperwork. They havent gone public with the news yet because they want to make sure there are no problems before they make an announcement.
Katherine also confessed she doesnt want to have biological children:
Im done with the whole idea of having my own children. [Giving birth] doesnt seem like any fun. I dont think its necessary to go through all of that.
That is one of the stupidest thing I have ever heard adopting is an act of love and its beautiful but actually having your own flesh and blood is something powerful too. I think everyone should be able to experience both.

DROP A COMMENT BELOW
One of the stupidest things I have witnessed is people like you taking quotes at face value. That quote comes from the Knocked Up press conference where Heigl was joking about childbirth in the context of the film (a movie about getting pregnant) – and laughing that it had put her off the whole experience. She has said many times she wants to have children but like most mothers I would imagine she has to balance her career aspirations with her desire to start a family. I am sure her and her husband will make the right choices for them.
Also the supposed article about the adoption comes from the National Enquirer so it has as less than 50/50 chance of even being true in the first place!
