First Published: December 2, 2011 1:42 PM EST Credit: Access Hollywood Caption Jillian Michaels stops by Access Hollywood Live on December 2, 2011LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Jillian Michaels dream of becoming a mom is inching closer to reality. The super trainer who, back in February, revealed she was leaving her post on NBCs The Biggest Loser to focus on adding to her family through adoption says shes been paired up with a child, and the only thing standing in her way is paperwork and a trip stateside for her future little one. Ive been matched with a little girl, Jillian excitedly revealed to Billy Bush and Kit Hoover on Fridays Access Hollywood Live. But, I now have to get her home It could take up to a year to get her home. Jillian, 37, met the girl she is hoping to adopt on a trip to Haiti. I went over to visit orphanages and I ended up falling in love with this little girl, and by the grace of God, I got matched up with her, she said. So now, its just a matter of trying to get her home and anything can happen and fall through or fall apart, so its kind of premature for me to say it, but thats where its at. So if it falls apart, youll know why Im like, devastated and not coming out of my house for months, she added. As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, during a visit to Access Hollywood Live in back in April, the tough-talking trainer said she was making huge progress in her quest to adopt, although the anticipation was taking a toll on her body. Im actually so excited, Jillian told Billy and Kit, when asked about the status of her adoption. The government shut down almost, [and] all I could think about was my 600A [immigration adoption] form! I was like, Oh my God, Ive developed an eye twitch! I called my business partner and was like, My eye is spontaneously twitching, she continued. But then, fortunately, I just got my immigration paper. So now Im this much closer and all the paperwork is done. It just needs to go to the various embassies its a godsend. Copyright 2011 by NBC Universal, Inc. All rights reserved.
