Megan Gale: "I have never stated I had 'difficulty conceiving' and my age has never been a factor."

Like any famous woman, Megan Gale must encounter her fair share of rumours and wildly inaccurate claims about her life in the media — and usually, she seems to rise above it.

However, there’s one persistent falsehood the model is infuriated by, and after it appeared in yet another article she firmly clarified the truth on social media earlier today.

“I don’t speak out about everything I read but I feel very strongly that I need to for this,” the 39-year-old wrote on Instagram alongside a screengrab from a Daily Mail report, which stated she had “previously spoken of her difficulty conceiving, especially as an older mother”.

Gale said this comment was “misleading, untrue” and not endorsed by her “in the slightest”.

“To be clear….. I have never stated that I had “difficulty conceiving” and certainly my age has never been a factor or an issue. I feel the need to be sensitive to women who have faced very real and serious obstacles trying to conceive and I was one of the lucky ones – conceiving naturally after a very normal 6 months of trying,” she wrote.

The Mad Max: Fury Road star and her partner, AFL player Shaun Hampson, welcomed their son River, who’s now one, in early 2014.

This isn’t the first time Gale, who’s an ambassador for the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation and L’Oréal Paris’ #10HOURS campaign, has been forced to shut down the “difficulty conceiving” rumour.

During an appearance on Channel 9’s Mornings last year, the Melbourne local told host Sonia Kruger the claim had been “blown out of proportion”.

"No, no, no, no, no! I've never said I've struggled to fall pregnant ... that's something that unfortunately has been blown out of proportion ... I've had a very normal conception," she said, after Kruger mentioned she'd been open about her "struggles to fall pregnant" on social media.

"I'm very sensitive to women who have struggled to fall pregnant and for me it happened naturally, it happened pretty quickly ... Our struggles were more of an athlete and a model being in different parts of the world and the country, and that's not even a struggle, that's just logistics."

Gale added that she had no idea where the rumour had come from, but suggested the media — "Let's grab headlines" — as a culprit.

A number of followers thanked and praised Gale for being so sympathetic to the fertility difficulties some women experience.

"As someone who endured decades of struggle and ultimately unable to have children; I appreciate the respect you've afforded by setting things straight. Thanks for your integrity and sensitivity," one wrote.
