Kerry Washington revealed that she had an abortion in her 20s in her new memoir, 'Thicker Than Water.'
, the actress opened up about an abortion she had following an unplanned pregnancy that occurred in the early 2000s — and why she’s choosing to shed light on it now.
“I struggled a lot in the beginning with whether or not to include my abortion story," Washington toldshortly before her memoir’s Sept. 26 release. "At first, I wasn't really sure how it fit into this story of my life. But I started to feel like it was really important for me to share this.
Kerry, who now shares two children and one step-child with husband Nnamdi Asomugha, also explained that she hopes sharing her story will help other women feel less “shame” surrounding the topic of abortion: "I'm telling my truth about my life, excavating some of my secrets," she shared. "I don't want my not telling it to make anybody think there is shame to be had."
