越来越多的女星为保持身形代孕宝宝

 

Los Angeles-based Dr Vicken Sahakian, who works at the Pacific Fertility Center, said an increasing number of rich and famous celebrities¹ are coming to him asking to have their babies via a surrogate in order to preserve their own figures.

 

Known as 'social surrogacy', the practice involves perfectly² healthy women choosing to pay another to carry and give birth to their child to spare themselves the ordeal³, and to avoid having to take a career break if their work depends on them having a flawless look.

 

'Typically these are women who prefer not to get pregnant and not to go through the process of pregnancy⁴ for many different reasons. For instance if you are a model or an actress and your income is based on performing and how you look and pregnancy will ruin that for year, if not more,' Dr Sahakian told presenter⁵ Jodie Marsh⁶ for her latest TLC documentary Making Babies.

 

Dr Sahakian, who has performed over 6,000 IVF procedures and is responsible for the birth of more than 3,000 babies over the world, said he has had a number of 'well-known' clients over the years who have opted⁷ for a social surrogacy.

 

He refused to give any names but said some have even faked their own pregnancies⁸ whilst secretly using a surrogate.

 

Former glamour⁹ model Jodie was shocked when she heard this asking: 'So some have used a surrogate then stuffed a pillow up their jumper?'

 

'We are talking about well-known women,' Dr Sahakian confirmed. 'It would be taboo¹⁰ for them to admit they used a social surrogate. I have had a couple of patients who pretended they were pregnant, yes.'
