Veteran actress Shaffy Bello has disclosed that she underwent a medical procedure 26 years ago to prevent having more children, citing her desire not to have a large family.

In a conversation on her YouTube channel, Shaffy Bello TV, Bello reflected on her experiences as a mother and family planning choices, revealing that she had her fallopian tubes tied despite her former husband's wish to expand their family.

“My ex-husband had to beg me to have another one. I didn’t want a lot of children. I wanted to stop,” she said.
