"Pope's Call for Global Surrogacy Ban Sparks Controversy"

Pope Francis called for a global ban on surrogacy, citing exploitation of women, while a surrogacy advocate, Sunshine Hanson, argues that surrogacy is a brave act of helping others. She emphasizes the need for fair compensation and proper regulations to protect surrogates. Surrogacy has gained popularity, with some countries banning it and others, like the U.S., having varying laws. Hanson's personal experience highlights the positive impact of surrogacy on intended parents, particularly in the LGBTQ+ community, and the need for legal protections for surrogates.

Andy Cohen Contemplates Bathing with Daughter Lucy: What's the Protocol?

Andy Cohen sought parenting advice from Mark Consuelos on whether it would be "weird" for him to take baths with his one-year-old daughter Lucy, despite having done so previously with his son Ben when he was a baby. Mark advised that bath time should end when children start speaking, but Andy felt unsure about the protocol. Andy's daughter Lucy was one of the first gestational surrogate babies born in New York, and he played a role in passing the law that made it legal. He also mentioned having two frozen embryos in case his children want to raise their siblings in the future.

Andy Cohen Reveals Daughter Lucy as One of New York's First Gestational Surrogacy Babies.

TV host Andy Cohen shared his experience of welcoming his daughter Lucy via compensated gestational surrogacy, which was illegal in New York until 2021. Cohen helped get the law passed to legalize compensated gestational surrogacy in New York. Lucy was one of the first surrogate babies born in New York. Compensated gestational surrogacy is when a woman carries a child, to whom she is not biologically related, for an individual or couple in exchange for a fee. The entire process can result in fees between $100,000 and $150,000.

Andy Cohen's Daughter Lucy Among First Gestational Surrogacy Babies Born in NY, Plus Wendy Williams RHONY Rumors

Andy Cohen revealed on a podcast that his daughter Lucy Eve was "one of the first gestational surrogate babies born" in New York after he helped pass the Child-Parent Security Act, which legalized gestational surrogacy in the state. Cohen, who still has two frozen embryos, suggested they could come in handy in the future if his children are unable to have kids of their own and want to raise their siblings instead. The two-time Peabody Award winner is still in production on his Bravo late-night talk show Watch What Happens Live and will also host the 13th season reunion of The Real Housewives of New Jersey and the 10th season Vanderpump Rules reunion.
