Wojcicki gave birth to her third child, a daughter, in July 2019 and she told Forbes while she was pregnant that she decided to have the baby by herself because she wanted a third child.
She said;
“So like, guess what? I executed.”
“Whether you’re in a relationship or not should not dictate whether or not you have the ability to have children.”
“I’m very stubborn. When there’s something I want to do, I get it done.”
