Actress Ini Edo Confirms Welcoming A Child Through Surrogacy

Following rampant reports, Nollywood actress Ini Edo has announced that she has given birth to a daughter through a surrogate mother.

In an interview with Stella Korkus, Ini claimed that the child was genetically hers because her eggs were used to fertilize it.

She said, “Yes I do have a daughter and I had her through surrogacy. The eggs are mine and so genetically, she’s my blood.

“I chose this path to fulfill my dream of becoming a mother. I still have a good number of eggs frozen in case I decide to do surrogacy again or carry my baby myself.”

“I was hoping to talk about her on her first birthday in a few months but mischief-makers beat me to it and spoilt the beautiful story with lies,” Ini Edo added.

Reacting to allegations that her child’s father was a married man, identified as Kome, she said, “It is so sad that in Nigeria when a ‘single’ woman is friends with a guy, it must mean to people that they are dating.

“Kome has been my friend for years and that’s what it is, period. He is a responsible family man and doesn’t deserve to be dragged into my motherhood story.”

“I opted for a donor for me and my baby’s peace of mind. Another major reason I opted for a donor is that it scares me so much when I see banter and controversies between a mother and a father over a baby in public forums.”
