Former Mediacorp actress and host Sharon Au shared a short message on her Instagram on October 15, musing about her “biggest regret”.
The 46-year-old is based in Paris, where she works as an investment director in a private equity firm.
On reflection, the biggest regret I have is probably not having children and experiencing motherhood. And now it is really too late,” read her caption, which was accompanied by a couple pictures of her bonding with a friend’s kid.
It’s ok, the next best thing is to be a nanny and play with my friends’ beautiful kids!” she went on to say, adding the hashtag c'est la vie” which roughly means “such is life”.
“As long as [you] haven’t reach menopause, it’s still possible (sic),” one netizen wrote. Other netizens also added that there are other options available, like adoption, or getting a surrogate mother.
One even suggested for Sharon to pay a visit to a sperm bank ‘cos it’s very common in Europe”.
Others also showed their support for Sharon’s choice, with one netizen writing: There are many ways to 'be' a mother — and many little ones who would be blessed by your presence in their lives. Whatever your choice, we're cheering for you!”
