Sara Bareilles Details IVF Journey, Trying to Have Baby For 2 Years

The wife of country musician Jelly Roll has been vocal about her in vitro fertilization (IVF) journey since June 2024.

“We had planned on doing this privately,” she wrote on Instagram, “but decided our IVF journey needed to be shared because we’ve always been so open.”

Since then, she has detailed “the emotions, the roller coaster, the worry,” of the medical process on her Dumb Blonde podcast.

Despite the challenges, though, she is open to other options to grow her family.

“It is tough, but at the same time it’s like, you just put it in God’s hands,” she said on a November 2025 episode of her podcast. “If it’s meant to be it’s meant to be. And if not, we can always adopt.”
