“When I was 15, I got pregnant. I had an abortion because I was afraid of my mom and because the guy wouldn’t stand up for the baby,” she said in an Instagram video.
Punzalan narrated how she got married at the age of 19 and tried to get pregnant again but failed. She met her now husband Jay Field, but said, “We’ve tried for 10 years to get pregnant, I didn’t get pregnant. We tried different kinds of ways to get pregnant, I didn’t — so we adopted.”
