Celebs who opted for surrogacy: With Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas’ announcement Friday that they had welcomed a new baby daughter via surrogacy, they became the latest celebrity couple to employ medical technology and to hire another woman to carry their child.
Chopra, 39, and Jonas, 29, were upfront about the fact that they used a surrogate, probably knowing there would be questions because the actress hadn’t been seen looking pregnant over the past nine months or so, but they weren’t forthcoming with an explanation for why they went that route.
Celebrities use surrogacy for a variety of reasons, including being a same-sex couple, being a single parent, and struggling with infertility.
These celebrities have attempted to shatter the hush surrounding surrogacy by sharing their stories, starting a conversation, and being upfront about it. Many celebrities have used surrogates to bear their children, and the list continues to increase, with Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas being the most recent additions.
Here are the names of celebrities who used surrogacy for parenthood.
