Ini Edo Reveals Why She Opted For Surrogacy

The well-known Nollywood actress Ini Edo has now disclosed why she chose surrogacy over giving birth to the child herself.

The actress said this on the current season 3 of the reality show “Young Famous and African.” Ini Edo also discussed the paternity of her child in a conversation with her co-stars.

The actress said she had problems carrying pregnancies in response to inquiries over her marriage and the paternity of her daughter.

One of her colleagues, Nadia asked: “Do you have a kid?

Ini Edo: “Yes, a baby girl.”

Nadia: “Are you married?”

Ini Edo: “ I’m not married.”

Nadia: “Are you together with the dad?”

Ini Edo: “No I am not.”

Nadia: “Is he still alive?”

Ini Edo replied: “He is not dead. He does not have anything to do with us. We are just two people. Me and my daughter.

“I do not really want to talk about my journey because it is personal. I’m raising my child alone. I went through surrogacy.
There was no man in my life at the time I wanted to have a child, and there are different ways to go about that.

“I never thought I would have fertility issues. But I have had issues carrying pregnancies long term. When it looked like it wasn’t going to happen and I wasn’t getting younger, I said, ‘What are the options available?

“Then this option came up, so I took it. I am very happy with my decision.”

Speaking further, the actress explained that she had gone through IVF procedures to get pregnant and had 6 miscarriages before deciding to opt for surrogacy.

Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy

One ❤️❤️❤️

Today's Quote

“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
