Tracee Ellis Ross has a lot in common with the fictional character, Rainbow, she plays on ABC’s hit comedy, Black-ish. They’re both super smart, funny, biracial and love travel. But while Ross and her onscreen alter ego are very simpatico, there’s one really huge difference.
Bow, as she’s called on the show, is the mother of five children, while Ross is happily childfree. Though it shouldn’t be much of an issue, the 45-year-old star said since taking on the role people have been extra nosey about her reproductive decisions.
“Last year, I was [fictionally] pregnant all season,” Ross told Vanity Fair. “That brought on a lot of comments and questions and pontifications from people with no invitation. I literally have said to people, for real, no joke, ‘Why don’t you just get out of my womb? Like, get out of my uterus? What are you doing in there? And why are you asking those questions? And what makes you think you can ask that?'”
