    Jessica White’s dream of motherhood is still going strong.

    The model-turned-reality star, 40, reveals in an exclusive interview with Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” that she is undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) to have a baby on her own after suffering a miscarriage with ex Nick Cannon.

    “The hormones are running rampant. I’m having hot flashes, I’m crying all the time. I’m mad about the wind blowing. It’s working!” White says of her experience, describing herself as a real-life “pin cushion” amid the succession of shots that accompany treatment.

    “We’re going to go in next month and retrieve all the eggs,” she continues. “You get tired of being picked … and having to stab yourself in the stomach. It’s crazy but it’s worth it.”

    White has turned to IVF after discovering that she had a sizable uterine fibroid and 10-centimeter cyst preventing her from successfully carrying a fetus to term.

    “I had six miscarriages,” the multi-hyphenate says, explaining that her fertility issues extended beyond her miscarriage with Cannon that she spoke about publicly in 2021.

    “No baby could actually survive in my womb in the first place,” she reflects. “It is a very lonely and isolating experience.”

    Now, with those medical issues attended to and a team of doctors who understand her desire to conceive, White is looking forward to starting a family.

    “I just keep thinking about those sweet two little babies that I’ll be implanting in my womb in the next couple of months,” says the beauty, who has already found her sperm donor. “I have my baby’s daddy … and I’m stuck on that being the one.”

    White previously told the “Jason Lee Show” that her eight-year romance with Cannon — a father of 12 — fizzled in part because of the way he chose to share his baby news with Brittany Bell.

    “She was aware that I had just had a miscarriage, two weeks prior to her news coming out, because he told me that he told her. And I was living at his house, she knew that as well,” she said at the time. “But I found out on Instagram along with the rest of the world.”

    White noted that she and Cannon “were about to start in vitro” when she discovered Bell, 36, was expecting her second child with Cannon in June 2020.

    “So, when I came out, people thought I was this homewrecker. No, there was a real-life going on. I was bullied for months with that whole situation,” she said.

    “I still tried to be nice about it. We didn’t break up right away, we tried to work things out.”

    Cannon, 43, for his part, applauded White for sharing her side of the story during his own interview with host Jason Lee in May 2023.

    “When she shared that, when it comes to any of the mothers of my children, those types of things — as someone who has lost a child, especially when you’re dealing with a mother, there’s no age or stage where you can say what their emotions should be when losing that child,” he said.

    The “Gigolo” rapper, who also called the Victoria’s Secret runway alum “beautiful” and “my muse,” noted that he’s “still in love” with her.

    “That woman has overcome so much,” he explained, “and is just a light and an angel to so many, who operates on a higher frequency.”

    During her chat with “Virtual Reali-Tea,” White — who currently stars on “Love & Hip Hop Atlanta” — emphasizes that the feelings are mutual.

    “I love Nick still. I’ll always love him. Nick and I grew up together, so that’s not something that will ever fade,” she says.

    “Whether children came here or not, his DNA is still implanted inside of me. It’s a part of my brain fragment now. It just didn’t work out but the love will never be lost.”

    White believes that “everything happens for a reason” and even has a hunch that becoming a single mother was perhaps destiny.

    “I’ve been praying about these babies since I was 21 and I’ve been dreaming about them. I’ve seen my children multiple times. So I pray for their destiny, the destiny that they’re going to choose,” she says, her eyes welling up with tears.

    “I could totally see myself making sure that my children grow up in a very safe space and … there will be nothing that comes before my children’s mental and emotional health.”

    In the meantime, White is nurturing another project — a new reality show called “Bombshell Academy,” a modeling competition series that prioritizes inclusivity and mentorship.

    “‘Bombshell Academy’ is my new TV show that I’m producing. It started because of my modeling agency called Mother,” says the catwalk queen, who’s been working in the industry since the age of 12.

    “It’s my mission to help young girls who have the same dreams I did,” she says Getty Images for Art Hearts Fash

    “I was like, ‘How do I take this process and all the wisdom and all the prudence that I’ve learned throughout all of my years of being in the business, and make sure that this next round of supermodels are highly protected, taken care of, nurtured and mothered?’”

    White — who has posed for such designers as Oscar de la Renta, Ralph Lauren and Marc Jacobs, and graced the pages of Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and Sports Illustrated, among other illustrious publications — says that “Bombshell Academy” feels part of her “life’s purpose.”

    “It’s my mission to help young girls who have the same dreams I did,” she says, noting that she met “so many beautiful faces” during a recent Atlanta casting on July 13. “I can’t wait to bring this show to life.”
