In a new interview with Porter, Elizabeth opened up about some people’s reactions to using a surrogate to conceive her and her husband Max Handelman‘s sons Felix, 8, and Magnus, 9, after finding out she had a “broken belly.”

“Women’s reproductive issues were things you would whisper about in small circles,” Elizabeth Banks said. “[Now] there’s #ShoutYourAbortion and IVF Facebook groups. I definitely think I’m still judged for what I’ve done and that people don’t understand my choices, but I don’t feel I owe anybody any explanation.”

She added, “If my story helps people feel less alone on their journey, then I’m grateful for that.”
