Evelyn Burdecki Defends Egg-Freezing Decision After Online Ageist Abuse

The 37-year-old says the procedure eased family-planning pressure, with a Sky series on October 21 set to detail the process.

Overview

  • Burdecki confirms she has frozen her eggs, citing the absence of a suitable partner as a key reason for the step.
  • She says she was insulted on social media over her age but insists it is her choice and that it is not too late at 37.
  • She describes the egg freezing as a gift to herself for her 37th birthday that helped remove time pressure from her plans.
  • Burdecki regrets not pursuing the option earlier and argues women are not sufficiently informed about social freezing.
  • Her six-part Sky documentary, Being Burdecki, premieres on October 21 and will show her preparation and the emotional process.
