Why did Alison Victoria freeze her eggs?
Alison froze her eggs for family planning and to ensure she becomes a mom one day. In a May 2022 episode of Wind City Rehab season 3, she visited the Vios Fertility Clinic in Wicker Park, Chicago, to consult with reproductive endocrinologist Dr Roohi Jeelani. She shared that her first attempt at freezing her eggs was unsuccessful, adding:
I really want to have an insurance policy that one day, I can have a family, if and when I'm ready... I want to have my own children... I just want to set myself up and my partner up for success when it comes to family planning.
At the time, her doctor managed to retrieve three eggs, but only one was viable. She was advised that she needs to have 10 frozen eggs to have one viable embryo. A determined Victoria said she will ensure she gets the ten to avoid any regrets and hopes that it will be "something I'm so grateful that I did."
In a May 2022 Instagram post, the Chicago-born interior designer said she first met an IVF doctor when she was 28 years old, but stopped the process when she met someone and decided to have kids "the natural way." When her relationship failed, she went back but got the disappointing news that her follicle count was "super low" and almost gave up.

What happened to Alison Victoria's old partner, Donovan?
Alison from HGTV and her former business partner, lead contractor Donovan Eckhardt, had a major falling out regarding company finances that led to the dissolution of their business partnership. Their legal battle played out in season 2 of Wind City Rehab in 2020.
Victoria accused Donovan, whom she often called her work husband, of questionable payouts to his construction company. He also faced regulatory problems, including working without a permit and skipping final inspections, which led to the city of Chicago suspending his general contractor and developer licenses.
Several former clients sued Eckhardt and Victoria, alleging faulty work and fraud. A subcontractor also sued him for $100,000 he was reportedly owed. In 2021, Donovan filed a $2.2 million lawsuit claiming defamation and emotional distress against Discovery Inc. and the show's production company, Big Table Media.
He alleged that he was falsely portrayed as a fraudulent villain on the show, which he claimed damaged his mental and physical health. The lawsuit was later dismissed. Eckhardt is no longer involved in the show and has cut all contact with Victoria, but continues to work as a contractor, per his Instagram.
