Ana Obregón's surrogate baby is her late son's.

Spanish TV actress Ana Obregón has revealed that her newborn baby, born via surrogacy in the US, was fathered by her late son who died of cancer at 27. Although surrogacy is illegal in Spain, adopting a child born abroad is lawful. The biological mother who carried the baby is reported to be a woman of Cuban origin living in Florida. The news sparked a national debate, with some condemning the practice as "a form of violence against women". Ana Obregón sees the storm over the baby's birth as "absurd", arguing that surrogacy is a form of assisted reproduction that is legal in much of the world beyond Spain.
