5 Celebs Who've Had Children Via Surrogate

Gabrielle Union has been suffering from infertility because of a form of endometriosis called adenomyosis.

Gabrielle and husband Dwayne Wade finally decided to do explore surrogacy in 2018. They welcomed baby Kaavia on November 2018.

“I’m so glad I got over myself and my fear of what people would think of me if I did not carry my own child,” Union said in an interview. “It’s OK to bring your child into the world in a way that is not through your body. The world will not consider you a failure. Every route to parenthood is perfect, worthwhile and amazing.”

Journalist Anderson Cooper had baby Wyatt via surrogacy. He welcomed his new baby on April 2020 and named him after his father, who died when Anderson was just 10 years old.

"As a gay kid, I never thought it would be possible to have a child" Cooper shared in an Instagram post.

"I'm grateful for all those who have paved the way, and for the doctors and nurses and everyone involved in my son's birth... Most of all, I am grateful to a remarkable surrogate who carried Wyatt, and watched over him lovingly, and tenderly, and gave birth to him."

Kim Kardashian carried her first (North) and second (Saint) kids herself. Because she suffered from placenta accreta during these pregnancies, she decided to do surrogacy for her third and fourth babies.

"We are incredibly grateful to our surrogate who made our dreams come true with the greatest gift one could give and to our wonderful doctors and nurses for their special care," Kardashian shared on their website after the 2018 birth of her third child, Chicago.

She welcomed their fourth child on May 2019 and named him Psalm.

Actors Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka had their twins Gideon Scott and Harper Grace via surrogacy.

"We found an egg donor anonymously through a hilarious process of looking at people's profiles and then an amazing surrogate who had helped a same-sex couple before." Neil shared in an interview with People magazine.

Lucy Liu shared on an interview that she chose to have a baby through surrogacy because of her busy schedule. She was, at the time, working in Elementary.

"I decided that was probably the best solution for me, and it turned out to be great," Liu shared happily.
