Until 2019 in the UK, only couples could use a surrogate, so Ian checked himself into a California clinic. He chose Melissa, 27, who wanted to earn money for college, as the cell donor, and Tina, a 26-year-old nurse, a single mother of two, became the surrogate. The whole procedure went well and soon she was pregnant with triplets. The procedure cost 50,000. pounds, i.e. approx. 276 thousand. zloty.
He dreamed of becoming a father, so he used the services of a surrogate. He had three sons
Lars, Ian and Piers were born in 2001 in California. Ian, 53, flew to the US to pick them up. – When we landed at Gatwick, they were technically illegal immigrants. I reported my sons, and the border guards didn’t really know what to do. They said I had to apply for permission to stay in the country for them. I did it,” he recalls, quoted by . As their biological father, he also applied for citizenship for the boys, which was successful without problems.
The authorities became interested in them after an article that appeared in the press. However, they did not check what it is, but only whether it pays taxes correctly. His story was sold to the media by someone close to him. He made no comment at the time, but wrote a book, And Then There Were Three: The Diary of a Truly Single Father.
He did not hide from the boys how they were conceived. Today they are 22 years old
The boys knew from the beginning how they were conceived. They even met Melissa and Tina, but they didn’t treat them like one. “I never thought it was weird growing up with just my dad. It’s completely normal for me. As long as there is someone who listens to you, is open, honest, gives love and care, then the gender of this someone does not matter – admitted one of the sons.
Today, Ian’s sons are 22 years old and still live with him. He himself did not associate himself with anyone. “I’m not young anymore and I know it. My sons have said they won’t take care of me when I’m old, and that’s completely natural to me. I would never agree to that. I wouldn’t want them to experience what I experienced myself,” he said, quoted by onet.pl
