Pussycat Doll singer Kaya Jones says she deeply regrets her abortions ()
Kaya Jones of the Pussycat Dolls

Kaya Jones, from the hugely successful pop group the Pussycat Dolls, has spoken for the first time about the abortions she had when she was younger and the devastating impact they've had on her life.

In an interview with Students for Life of America, the world famous singer said the three abortions she had still haunt her to this day and she talked about how she is now actively pro-life.

In the interview she recalled how she became pregnant while in the Pussycat Dolls and was told to "get rid of it."

She said initially “I didn't think it was that big of a deal" but later on the full realisation of what she had done hit home and was devastating. She warned women not to fall for the lies of the pro-abortion movement, saying: "I've gone through it all. I will assure you, you will regret it your whole life.”

She said that while the impact of abortion always stays, she sought healing and forgiveness and encouraged other women who've had abortions to likewise seek help.

In the US, the group Silent No More consists of women who regret their abortions and offers support to women who have been through an abortion. In Ireland, the group Women Hurt exists as a support to women who've had abortions and they can be contacted through their website at www.womenhurt.ie ([link removed])

Three Year Review Report to be released once research on “conscientious objection rights” is completed, according to Department of Health (http://)
Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly

The Chairperson of the Government’s Three Year Review of the abortion law, barrister Marie O’Shea, has said the reason for the delay in releasing her report is because she’s wants to include “vitally important” research on how conscientious objection rights are impacting the operation the new abortion law.

According to a spokesperson for the Department of Health the research in question is almost finished and will be presented to the Chair of the review in the coming weeks.

In December, the Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly said that he expected the full report of the review to be submitted to his department by the end of the first week in February at the latest.

Mention of specific research being conducted on conscientious objection rights as part of the review is something that has only arisen in recent weeks. It is clear that pro-abortion advocates wish to remove the last remaining rights from healthcare professionals who are conscientious objectors to assisting in abortions.

The Pro Life Campaign made a submission to the review which included a call for freedom of conscience rights to be strengthened not weakened as part of any changes to the current law. Thousands of pro-life supporters made similar submissions.

The primary mark of a functioning, pluralistic democracy is that individual citizens’ freedom of conscience is respected. Any attempts to further erode conscientious objection rights will have to be strenuously resisted if the report when it’s finally released recommends any such changes.
