They warned that being overweight was being conflated with infertility, and said the magazine glossed over explaining Wilson\u2019s diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome, a hormonal disorder common among women of reproductive age.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeveral people expressed discomfort with various angles of the Rebel story in multiple meetings,\u201d a source close to the situation told The Post. \u201cIt was like Liz just didn\u2019t want to hear it or didn\u2019t care. It isn\u2019t that there\u2019s no validity to the idea that weight can impact fertility.

The breezy approach was \u201cnever\u201d done by previous entertainment-savvy editors like Dan Wakeford and his predecessor Jess Cagle, the source said. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBasically we\u2019ve just put it out there that a man declared Rebel too fat to have babies and she decided he was right.
