Children of stars from surrogate mothers. Russian stars who have children with the help of a surrogate mother Stars who have become parents with the help of surrogate mothers
To fulfill their old dream of becoming parents again, they turned to a surrogate mother for help. The Malikovs are far from the first Russian stars to have children in this way.
Philip Kirkorov: daughter and son
In 2011, right from the stage of the Golden Gramophone award, he announced that he had a daughter, whom he named Alla Victoria (in honor of Alla Pugacheva and his mother, Victoria Kirkorova). Less than a year later, in June 2012, the pop king of the Russian stage had a second child - son Martin.
The singer admitted that surrogate mothers gave birth to children. “I am not, shall we say, a pioneer. It’s just that maybe in our country, he was the first to openly say this, not shy, not hiding behind various legends about supermodels who gave birth to you a child, and then disappeared somewhere, leaving the child in your care. I am not a supporter of lies. It's easier to always tell the truth, because you never lie. Then someday you will need to tell something to your children. And it will be necessary to somehow lie. Why?" – said Kirkorov in an interview with NTV journalists.
The singer is helped to raise his son and daughter by his aunt Marie and father Bedros. But the names of those who gave birth to the singer's children are kept in the strictest confidence. At one time there were rumors that this was Anastasia Stotskaya: her son and the son of the pop king. However, this information has not been confirmed.
Alla Pugacheva and Maxim Galkin: daughter and son
Literally a year and a half later, the ex-wife of Philip Kirkorov, Alla Pugacheva, picked up the "children's baton". The surrogate mother gave birth to her and her current husband Maxim Galkin twins - daughter Lisa and son Harry. In this case, the eggs of Alla Borisovna, frozen 11 years ago, were used. As Maxim admitted, his wife told him about these eggs only after the wedding.
The surrogate mother did not know for whom she was carrying children. The famous spouses followed the course and did everything so that she did not need anything. “We remained unknown to each other. It is clear that a surrogate mother can guess, but to remain incognito for each other is the ethics of these relationships ... ”Galkin notes.
Sergey Lazarev: son
34-year-old Sergey Lazarev three years ago first became a father, but openly told the public that he was raising his son Nikita recently. Now the singer now and then publishes pictures of the boy on his microblog on Instagram, showing how they spend time together.
However, the artist has not yet said who Nikita's mother is, which gave rise to a huge number of rumors on this topic. Some said that it could be a fan of Sergei, others - that this is one of his former girlfriends.
Unexpectedly, Philip Kirkorov dotted all the i's in this matter. As a guest of the Secret for a Million program, he told viewers about how Lazarev's son was born. “I only found out that he had a son when it happened. And also from a surrogate mother,” said the singer.
Alena Apina: daughter
Philip Kirkorov is not the first among the stars of Russian show business who openly spoke about the fact that a surrogate mother gave birth to a child. Back in 2001, singer Alena Apina gave a frank interview to the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper, in which she admitted that another woman was carrying her child at the moment. She had to take such a measure due to the fact that she herself could not bear the baby (including IVF did not help).
Doctors offered Alena to simulate pregnancy in order to hide the fact of surrogate motherhood, but she refused: “I host a weekly program on television where I jump and run. Well, who would believe me that I myself gave birth? I'd rather say it now and myself, than later it will be sucked on secular parties.
“I spent more than one month in hospitals and I know how many women suffer from infertility, and I want to support them with my example.”
Alena Apina
The singer basically did not want her child to be carried by a Muscovite - she was embarrassed by the poor ecology in the capital. As a result, Apina chose a woman from a small town. She worked as a research assistant and already raised two children herself. The singer was constantly in touch with her, sent money for food and periodically visited her.
As a result, the woman gave birth to Alena's daughter, who was named Ksyusha. Last year, the girl graduated from high school, as her mother proudly told on Instagram.
Marianna Maksimovskaya: daughter
In 2012, the 41-year-old TV presenter Marianna Maksimovskaya had a daughter, Evgenia. After this news appeared in the media, secular observers immediately began to assume that a surrogate mother gave birth to a child, because no one saw a pregnant TV presenter, she continued to walk in fitted dresses and suits (even when she should have already noticed a rounded stomach).
Maximovskaya did not give any official comments on this topic. This is the first common child of a TV star and her husband, the general producer of the Vesti TV channel Vasily Borisov. From a previous marriage, Marianna has a daughter, Alexander, whom she gave birth to while still studying journalism at Moscow State University.
Olga Slutsker: three daughters and two sons
Businesswoman Olga Slutsker has five children. All of them were born by surrogate mothers - this is due to the state of health of the woman.
From her marriage to businessman Vladimir Slutsker, Olga has a son, Mikhail, and a daughter, Anna. They were born under a surrogacy program in the United States. After the couple could not share the children. As a result, by a court decision, Misha and Anya stayed with their father.
In February 2013, Slutsker again became a mother. This time, twin girls - Katya and Masha - were taken out by a woman from Russia. In an interview with Ksenia Sobchak for SNC magazine, Olga told how she chose a surrogate mother: “ I liked the warmth with which she spoke of her daughter, how well she answered questions. She honestly said that she wanted to join this program because it was very easy for her to carry her child, that she was ready to bear more and that she wanted to create normal living conditions for her daughter, because her current job and salary did not allow her to do this. And of course, I was bribed by the fact that she is very responsible.
Sometimes pregnancy can be impossible for a woman, or even simply dangerous. Families that are faced with such a situation resort to adoption, and those who are richer resort to the services of surrogate mothers. We invite you to read about Russian and foreign celebrities for whom other women carried children.
Elton John
Elton John is openly gay. In 1993, he met his future partner David Furnish, and more than ten years later, when same-sex marriages were legalized in the UK by Queen Elizabeth II, they got married. In 2010, they finally became parents - then a surrogate mother from California gave birth to a son for them, who received the magnificent name Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John. Three years later, their second son, Elijah Joseph Daniel Furnish-John, was born in the same way.Robert DeNiro
Robert De Niro is the father of six children at once. In all likelihood, the cheerful Italian simply could not stop at a smaller number. For the first time, De Niro turned to the services of a surrogate mother in 1995 - he and his then wife, model Tuki Smith, became the parents of twins. In 1998, his next wife, flight attendant Grace Hightower, gave birth to the actor's son Elliot on her own, but the next baby for the couple was carried by a surrogate mother. A girl named Helen was born in 2011. 
Sarah Jessica Parker
Sarah Jessica Parker married colleague Matthew Broderick in 1997, and in 2002 gave birth to his son, who was named James Wilkie. A few years later, the couple wanted to relive the experience of parenthood, but Sarah Jessica never got pregnant again. Sarah Jessica Parker decided not to risk her health, and since the family's finances allowed, she turned to the services of a surrogate mother. So two twins were born - Marion and Tabitha. 
Nicole Kidman
Nicole Kidman, married to Tom Cruise, raised two adopted children - son Connor and daughter Isabella (the editors of the site note that Isabella was not too lucky with her appearance, but she managed to turn a disadvantage into dignity and became a stylist). After her divorce from Cruise, Nicole Kidman remarried and gave birth to a daughter, Sunday Rose. But her next attempts to get pregnant were unsuccessful, and the fourth baby for Kidman and her husband, musician Keith Urban, was carried by a surrogate mother. The baby girl was named Faith Margaret. 
Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson became a father three times - and the first two children were born to him by his wife, former nurse Debbie Rowe. After a divorce from her, the king of the pop scene decided not to stop there and in 2001 turned to the services of a surrogate mother. Her name was not released. In 2002, Jackson's older children, Prince and Paris, had a younger brother. The boy was named Prince Michael II. The editors of the site notes that the most important criterion when choosing a surrogate mother was her level of intelligence - each of the applicants had to pass a tricky IQ test. 
Cristiano Ronaldo
One of the best football players in history, Cristiano Ronaldo has already become a father three times by 2017, and says he does not intend to stop there. In 2010, an anonymous surrogate mother gave birth to a boy for him, who was named Cristiano Jr. And at the beginning of the summer of 2017, Ronaldo became a father immediately for the second and third time - a certain woman carried twins for him. It is noteworthy that for many years, while Ronaldo met with supermodel Irina Shayk, there was no serious relationship between them, but as soon as they broke up, Shayk became pregnant after a short time from a new partner, Bradley Cooper. 
Alena Apina
The star of the pop scene of the 90s, Alena Apina, became one of the first famous women in Russia who used the services of a surrogate mother for the birth of a child. After many years of trying to get pregnant on her own, Alena Apina decided to take a different path. In December 2001, her daughter Ksenia was born. At that time, Apina was still married to media manager Alexander Iratov, but in 2016 the singer officially announced that she was getting a divorce. 
Philip Kirkorov
Philip Kirkorov became the father of two babies in 2011 and 2012 - daughter Alla Victoria and son Martin were born eight months apart. The proud father himself said that he gave his daughter such an unusual name in honor of his first wife Alla Pugacheva and his mother Victoria. Nothing is reported about the one who became the mother of Kirkorov's children. Judging by the interval in which the children were born, they were different women, but nothing more is known for certain. In addition, because of the extraordinary similarity of Kirkorov's children with the son of his ward singer Anastasia Stotskaya, they said that it was she who could become the mother of one of his children. However, these rumors were not confirmed. 
Alla Pugacheva
The children of Alla Pugacheva and Maxim Galkin were born in 2013 in a Russian clinic. Twelve years earlier, Pugacheva decided to freeze several eggs - in case she wanted to return to motherhood after forty years (the prima donna gave birth to Kristina Orbakaite in 1971). The Pugacheva family does not name the surrogate mother, so numerous speculations on this topic are circulating on the Web. In the TV show of Boris Korchevnikov, it was reported that this mother could be Elena Shirinina, however, she herself and Alla Borisovna indignantly rejected this version, preferring to keep the woman incognito. 
Olga Slutsker
The athlete and owner of the fitness club chain Olga Slutsker could not get pregnant herself for a long time and in the end decided to leave this important matter to surrogate mothers. Slutsker found women who agreed to bear the pregnancy for her in the United States. So Olga's two children were born - a son and a daughter. Slutsker gave birth to children in a marriage with businessman and politician Vladimir Slutsker. In 2009, the couple divorced, and a year later the court sided with the father and placed the children under his care.
