While promoting her new “Smize Yourself” app, Banks told ESSENCE.com that the media’s obsession with her decision to have children has hit an all-time high– and has left her baffled.
“The baby fever thing I find interesting because I say it publicly every three years. I say it all the time and every time I say it, it gets crazy. I’m like, ‘Wow, people really care about that,’” she explained. “I see it on a poll on CNN and I am like, ‘Wow, what is going on?’ All I said is I am ready to have babies.”
The whole notion of Banks having children resurfaced during an interview with Steve Harvey back in October when it seemed like she had made up her mind. Whatever the outcome, it’s likely to be kept under wraps.

“I try to keep my private life kind of private,” she said. “I didn’t realize people care that much, but I guess they do. I feel like so many people are having babies and I didn’t feel like me saying it this time would get such a big buzz.”
For now, the Harvard Business graduate is focused on launching her mobile app, creating storylines for her new sitcom and– among other things– minding her own damn business.
