Celebrity Surrogates
For couples that cannot conceive on their own, they are increasingly turning to surrogates, a woman who carries their child to term.
In some cases, the surrogate provides the egg, but when medically possible, many couples prefer to create an embryo from their own sperm and egg and implant that into a "gestational carrier."
The process isn't easy and can cost more than $40,000, but for these celebrities it's all worth it.
