She was open about her struggles with fertility

Nicole has been vocal about the difficulties she faced while trying to have her own baby.

She reportedly gave away $100 million in 2019 to help women who become pregnant later in life, along with other causes.

Speaking at the launch of Reproductive Longevity and Equality, Shanahan said: “Like many women who are not quite ready to start a family in their early 30s, I decided, or so I thought at the time, to take matters into my own hands and freeze embryos.”

“However, after three failed attempts at embryo-making and three dozen visits to in vitro fertilization clinics around the Bay Area, I learned that I was not nearly as unshakable as I thought I was,” she added.
