Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra Surrogacy

[MintyGreenDream]

I'm usually open minded about these things but it appears that they've admitted that she doesn't have fertility issues but her schedule was too "hectic" to fit in conceiving a baby.Wtaf.
Sorry but this seems very wrong

Sorry for the dm article

However they decided to have a child is really up to them. Fertility, timing, age etc. It's hard to get pregnant for 90% of people so why risk it? They could've been trying since they got together.

My concern would only have been that they used a surrogate who had already been one 5 times. That's the odd bit.

I got the impression that she didn’t have time to conceive not actually carry a pregnancy

With endo even trying every month it can easily be a couple of years trying to get pregnant naturally. With their work that would mean giving up work pretty much to devote to even trying to get pregnant

Isn't this what people who really want a child do, doesn't sound like they need the cash. DH and I put our to lives on hold for 3 years because we wanted a child, not sure 'I don't have time' is an acceptable reason to buy babies 🤔

How about we stop judging her and show sympathy to a first time mum who must be worried sick about her premature baby?

[OhHolyJesus]

What happens in a surrogacy if the mother dies, do her existing children and family get paid or looked after at all???

Insurance in the U.K. usually covers the costs but I haven't heard of her remaining family being 'looked after', I guess it would depend on the policy the commissioning parents take out and any other life insurance. Surrogacy agencies k think encourage insurance policies but I don't think it's a requirement and it can be a private arrangement made outside of an agency, without legal advice.

The widow of this surrogate mother, Michelle Reeves, had to crowd fund to pay the funeral costs.

If I remember correctly there was a similar situation for another woman who died, the commissioning couple were from Spain were surrogacy is illegal and the mother left behind three sons and a husband.

Obviously pregnancy is risky, pregnancy with another woman's eggs more so.

Surrogate mothers do die we just don't hear about to much, which isn't that surprising considering the media narrative on surrogacy.

[FannyCann]

I think there is no way of knowing how many deaths of surrogate mothers there have been in USA @OhHolyJesus as most are subject to NDAs. Often they are only picked up when some sharp eyed notices the Gofundme. There have been three deaths of surrogate mothers in the USA in 2021 that I have heard about, in one case the godundme was spotted but there are no other details at all. Considering the USA has the worst maternal death rates in the western world there are likely to be more. Of course in places like Ukraine no one is counting.

[FannyCann]

In the case of the one known death of a surrogate mother in the U.K. the commissioning parents refused to pay the outstanding £8850 of her expenses, I believe they argued they'd had to spend a lot on lawyers etc as a result of her death.

She's not a first time mum

[Beefcurtains79]

Worried sick? They aren’t even at the hospital.
If they were, you can guarantee they’d have rang the press and put it all over their Instagram for the gullible sycophants.

She and her partner have paid a lot of money for IVF for another woman so that she can give birth to a baby which is then to be handed over to them. This may be their first experience of having parental responsibility for a newborn, but she has not given birth herself, which is what most of us mean when we talk about a first-time mum. The other obvious meaning is a woman about to become a mother by adoption. In the UK she would have gone through extensive screening before being approved to adopt. Surrogacy bypasses all of that.

There is no way on earth a woman who had just given birth or was about to adopt a very premature baby would carry on with her normal work schedule while the baby was looked after in a hospital in a different city. There should be no way on earth a man in a similar position should carry on with his work schedule too. One or both of these 'parents' should be with the baby. Sod the filming or whatever else it is they're doing.

This is just further evidence that surrogacy is for the benefit of the buyers, not the child.

Might well be a lavender marriage.

Exactly. It's not as if they don't have assistants, publicists, agents, whole teams to deal with any inaccuracies in the press.

Maybe they don't think their actions are controversial.

I wondered that.

[queenofarles]

Cameron Diaz is a mother ? That’s news to me !

Kim talked about her challenges , she had IVF with her second, then went down the surrogacy route,
Hilary Baldwin had her 6th via surrogacy,
They both got backlash for opting for surrogacy when they both can carry , and are parents to healthy children .
But I guess most Celebs think that pregnancies are complication free, and can happen whenever they feel like it , when in reality they are not.

But what’s odd about Nick and Pryianka is choosing a surrogate who had 5 other pregnancies , that’s risky for both mother and baby,

It's no secret in the industry.

[EishetChayil]

Which is actually very sad, and makes all the LGBTQ rights chat completely hollow if a man in showbiz can't come out as gay.

Maybe she is the gay one?

...And his wife has to pretend, well they both have to pretend to be in love for the cameras and Instagram.

If true then no wonder they can't conceive, they don't want to have sex with each other. If he is a gay man he could have adopted or paid for a surrogate morn baby as a single man, gay or not. As a single woman, lesbian or not, she could have done the same or bought some donor sperm, done IUI or IVF if she had infertility issues.

If it is all a pretence then this poor little baby girl has a lifetime of lies ahead of her. What a situation to be born into.

[GiantHaystacks2021]

Is it really no secret in the industry?

I'd well believe it actually.

[GiantHaystacks2021]

Won't the first.
George Clooney and Bradley Cooper, I'm looking at you.
And that other Jonas brother.

[SleepingStandingUp]

@GiantHaystacks2021

I'd well believe it actually.

But if it isn't a secret in the industry but they're lying because of the industry, how does that work?

[PearPickingPorky]

Who cares if it is a Lavender marriage or not?

There are no personal circumstances that makes it OK to use another woman to incubate and birth a child for you, regardless of whether you've done it due to one of the couple's own reproductive system not working properly, or whether your marriage is a facade, you're or a gay male couple, or whether you're too vain/'busy' to be pregnant yourself. None of those reasons make surrogacy OK.

And now a dangerously premature baby has been born and has such a difficult journey ahead of her, and the mother has risked her own health for a baby that is expected to be given to someone else.

What a mess.

[queenofarles]

I don’t get it, if truly he is gay why is she with him then? She’s super famous in India, and one of the handful of Indian actresses to make it in to Hollywood ,she is attractive, rich, plus at her age I’d be looking for serious commitment , not just a sham marriage with a much younger man.
Unless she is the closeted one? which perhaps makes more sense?
I don’t know they’ve always puzzled me .

[Soffit]

The surrogacy is a separate issue from the 'Working hard on important movie stuff. Nothing to see/say yet because no photo ops to sell just yet' message they have given out. This is ludicrous considering that she is a supporting actress and he has done no meaningful work for years. Just another pair of twits who want to portray being busier and more important than they actually are.
It diminishes the importance of the birth and the person who has given birth to below that of their so-called careers.
It almost sounds like they are disappointed with the baby for arriving prematurely and causing a potential diary clash so they are standing up to the challenge by putting her right back in her originally designated time slot.

[Soffit]

As for anyone saying that they might be guarded about sharing their feelings and fears publicly, I don't buy it. They are a touch feely emotionally literate actor and singer. pairing. They know how to work all that.
They are apparently negotiating a candid interview right now . They will probably wear their hearts on their sleeves for People magazine or Hello. It is as though there is no point in being an spontaneously authentic person unless the right number of dollars are flashed in front of them. Performing on cue is what they are robotically best at doing I guess
