Surrogacy is increasingly turning out to be that saving straw that allows people with any problems to become parents. Recently, celebrities openly talk about the birth of their children with the help of a surrogate mother. This excludes the possibility of speculation on an important topic and at the same time gives everyone a chance to know the happiness of motherhood and fatherhood.

Alena Apina

The singer became the very first Russian star to openly talk about surrogacy even at a time when the child had not even been born yet. Alena Apina took this step consciously, not only to avoid discussions behind her back.

The performer really wanted to have children, but even the IVF procedures, which she underwent 9, did not lead to the desired result. Alena suffered, cried a lot, then fell into a severe depression. And again I went to the next procedure. However, the last attempt was unsuccessful, the embryo did not take root again. The doctors suggested that Alyona Apina and her husband Alexander Iratov use the services of a surrogate mother. The couple found a woman who agreed to carry a child for them in a provincial town. She was married with two children.

Ksyusha was born on December 7, 2001, two months ahead of schedule. Alena Apina was holding her baby in her arms two hours after her birth.

Olga Slutsker

A well-known business woman, founder and head of fitness clubs, has resorted to the services of a surrogate mother several times. All five of Olga's children were carried and born by another woman. The eldest children Mikhail and Anna were born in a marriage with Vladimir Slutsker 20 and 15 years ago, respectively. After the divorce, the husband sued his wife for a long time and, thanks to his connections and position, in 2009 he sued his wife's children.

In the winter of 2013, Olga became the mother of twins Katya and Masha, and in 2015 her youngest son was born. After lengthy litigation with her first spouse, Olga diligently protects her personal life from prying eyes.

Philip Kirkorov

The birth of children of Philip Kirkorov gave rise to many rumors and versions about their mother. The showman himself did not hide: he used the services of a surrogate mother to become a father. The age difference between Alla-Victoria and Martin is only 7 months, and they are often mistaken for twins.

The singer calls himself an adherent of the traditional family and admits in an interview that a mother has children and takes part in their upbringing, she just does not like publicity, so she does not appear in front of the cameras.

Alla Pugacheva and Maxim Galkin

The prima donna of the Soviet stage and her husband are the happy parents of Lisa and Harry, who were born in September 2013. They never made a secret of the fact that they had to resort to surrogacy services.

Lisa and Harry, thanks to their dad, who often shares the achievements of children on social networks, have long become real little stars. They touch fans with their talents and bright spontaneity.

Sergey Lazarev

The popular Russian singer admitted that he became a father only two and a half years after the birth of his son Nikita. He himself did not give any comments on this matter, but Philip Kirkorov, who has long been friends with the singer, in an interview with Lera Kudryavtseva said that Sergei became a happy dad thanks to surrogate motherhood.

Lazarev is proud of his son and often publishes photos with the heir on his Instagram page, accompanying them with very touching captions.

Dmitry Malikov

The famous performer in January 2018 surprised his fans with a message about the birth of his son. Later it became known that Mark was born in the clinic "Ava-Peter" in St. Petersburg, specializing in the provision of services in the field of reproductive medicine and surrogacy. This institution is known for its strict observance of confidentiality, so it became known about the birth of a baby after the fact.

The singer does not hide his happiness, because he has long dreamed of an heir, and now he believes that his friendly family has become even stronger, because a new young player has appeared in it.

Was there a surrogate mother?

In February 2018, Emmanuel Vitorgan announced the birth of his daughter Ethel. On February 26, the 78-year-old actor and his 56-year-old wife received congratulations on their addition to the family. Many were sure that the baby was born with the help of surrogate motherhood, but Irina, who became a mother for the first time, claimed that she carried and gave birth to a daughter on her own. She used the help of doctors only for the IVF procedure.

It is assumed that surrogacy services could have been used by Ingeborga Dapkunaite, who showed her son in the film on the eve of her 55th birthday, as well as TV presenter Marianna Maksimovskaya, who became a mother for the second time in 2012. However, both celebrities refrain from commenting, protecting their privacy from outside interference.

Alena Apina admitted in an interview: if she did not have money for a surrogate mother, she would ask one of her relatives to carry a child for her. Cases when a close relative becomes a surrogate mother are not at all uncommon. since his wife, unfortunately, for health reasons, was physically unable to maintain any of her pregnancies.
