Fantasia Barrino had an abortion. Remember a few months ago when the scandal broke with Fantasia? She was tromping around with a married man, was exposed and then attempted suicide? Well, there’s a new wrinkle to the epic tale – she was also pregnant at the time.

Fantasia admitted in a North Caroline court hearing this week that she had an abortion around the time she attempted suicide. Antwuan Cook‘s wife, Paula, would still like very much to press “homewrecking” charges on the singer, as Fantasia has maintained she thought Cook was separated.

Fantasia seems to be in much better spirits these days. She blames the suicide attempt on a particularly rocky end to a turbulent six years in the media spotlight.
