Singer Toni Braxton has been advised by her doctors not to have any more kids-because a pregnancy could affect her heart condition.
She says, “I’ve been advised not to have any more children for medical reasons, so that’s it - the shop has closed, even though I would have loved a daughter. But I’m stronger now, I pretty much lead a healthy, normal life.”
In 2008, Toni was hospitalized due to a condition of her heart called microvascular angina, a condition which occurs when blood flow is restricted to the heart muscle.
