Actress Lily Collins and her husband Charlie McDowell faced backlash on social media after announcing the birth of their daughter via surrogate at the end of January. Trolls criticized the couple for contributing to what they deemed an ‘unethical trend’ of using surrogacy to have a child. Despite the negativity, the couple expressed their gratitude to their surrogate in an Instagram post.
This incident has brought attention to other celebrities who have welcomed children through surrogacy. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West turned to a surrogate due to medical complications from Kim’s previous pregnancies. Khloé Kardashian and Tristan Thompson also used a surrogate for their second child, with Kim’s help guiding them through the process.
Other celebrities, such as Paris Hilton, Rebel Wilson, Andy Cohen, Tyra Banks, Priyanka Chopra, Kristen Wiig, and Gabrielle Union, have also shared their experiences with surrogacy. Many of them faced medical or personal challenges that led them to choose surrogacy as a way to expand their families. Despite the criticism and challenges they faced, these celebrities have expressed gratitude and love for their children and the surrogates who helped them on their journey.
The stories of these celebrities shed light on the complexities and emotional toll of the surrogacy process. By sharing their experiences, they hope to destigmatize surrogacy and provide support for others who may be considering this option to start or grow their families.
