Ex-beauty queen Nike Oshinowo welcomes twins via surrogacy

Wanted to get more info before posting. So here's what I found out. The former beauty queen welcomed a set of twins - a boy and a girl, via surrogacy a few months ago in the US. Nike and the twins returned to Nigeria on Monday September 30th. The twins are Nike's biological children but was carried and birthed by another woman - something like what Giuliana and Bill Rancic did. The identity of the children's father is currently unknown but there are indications that Nike bought sperm from a sperm bank in the US. The 47 year old who has over the years battled endometriosis already has two adopted children. Congrats to her.

Some people are sooo dumb and daft..!some just read the subject and scroll straight down to comment. Alright lemme help those askin' can't she av her own kids e.t.c
She has ENDOMETRIOSIS, a condion that results from the swelling of ENDOMETRIAL tissue outside the womb, causing pelvic pain. How do u expect a woman with this condition 2 birth a child..!#smh
She therefore sought a surrogate mother, which she wouldn't have done if it wasn't for the circumstance.
For those who don't understand what a surrogate mother means, read this. A SURROGATE MOTHER is a woman who bears a child or bears children on behalf of another woman, either from her own eggs or from the implantation in her womb of a fertilized egg from the other woman.
NB: The twins are NIKE's biological children..!#doctorbobby

Good for her that she's honest about it. A lot of families do this when they have fertility issues but they'll pretend that the woman is pregnant. There is no shame in having problems and choosing an available option. Much better than all these baby farms with teenage girls being taken advantage of. Congrats to her

Sorry but not sorry to say, some of the comments here are really stupid. U need to be enlightened about Nike's medical conditions over the past years before u open ur mouths and trash talk her. May God not put u thru any kinda issue that will make u do things u wouldn't otherwise wanna do. The fact that u can't do it doesn't grant u the nerve to condemn whoever does.
Congrats to Nike, may u enjoy motherhood

Really? D woman dat carries d child is d mother of d child? Have u idiots not heard dat nuture not nature determines how a child grows. BtW. I am married wit my own natural kids but y r nigerians so archaic in dere thinking? God has blessed us wit doctors and technologies. He has put them and us on dis earth so that we can prosper. But due to dumbass illiterates and dere dumbass reasonings ppl continue to suffer and wait on God. They don't have sex o yet they pray to God to bless dem wit the fruits of the womb. Like reall? R u virgin Mary. People need to explore oda options. I commend and applaud her. Motherhood is about raising the child and providing love and support for your child. It has absolutely nothing to do who "carries" d child. Ppl need to get enlightened man. Dumbasses.
