Mother obsessed & fascinated by her child conceived through son’s frozen sperm & delivers baby girl
A 70 year old actress and socialite has been presenting a daughter conceived with her late son’s frozen sperm.
The Spanish actress Ana Obregón, hit the media waves two years ago when she decided to keep her beloved son’s sperm so it could eventually be used to produce a surrogate baby.
That wish came to pass, through the welcoming of baby Anita Sandra, who was conceived using an egg donor and late son’s frozen sperm.
She had the sperm frozen for two years in the bid to fulfil the final wishes of her son Aless Lequio, who died of cancer in 2022.
She has now, happily told ¡Hola! Magazine: ‘The girl isn’t my daughter, she’s my granddaughter”.
The Sunday Mail equally reports her telling Spanish TV this weekend, how her home is now ‘full of stuffed animals and toys’, adding: ‘I even have a little ball pool where she makes me dive in.’
Speaking of her son Aless’ exit experience, she explained: ‘We live our whole lives saying that we are eternal and nothing happens here.
‘Suddenly, one day they tell you at 25 years old that you have an aggressive cancer,’.
Aless’ final wish before his death at the age of 27 was to have a child, which Ana says she has fulfilled
Frozen Sperm
Ana who proudly shares snaps of her and Anita on her Instagram says she was resurrected after her-granddaughter was born
Ana, who proudly shares snaps of her and Anita on her Instagram, says she was ‘resurrected’ after her granddaughter was born.
Ana continued: ‘You think, that’s not what they told you when you were little. So I have many more fears [with Ana], more than when I had Aless.’
In a recent interview with ¡Hola! to mark Anita’s second birthday, Ana said she had been ‘dead for three years’ after her son’s death.
However, the arrival of her granddaughter ‘resurrected’ her, she said.
‘I know I’ll never feel the happiness I had when Aless was with me again,’ she told the magazine.
‘That pain will never go away. You don’t accept or get over the death of a child.
‘You end up accepting that you’ll never be able to come to terms with their departure.
‘Fortunately, Anita now fills my days. I was dead for three years from Aless’ death until Anita was born.’
She also spoke about having more fears as Anita gets older, explaining: ‘With Aless, I would go to work confident that everything would be fine.
‘But life has taught me that one day you have a perfectly healthy child, and out of the blue, you’re told he has a very aggressive cancer. Life is a breath of fresh air.’
Ana described Anita as a ‘being of light’, adding: ‘She’s just as intelligent as her dad.
‘She’s always asking me for hugs, but not for herself, but so I can hug those around us.
‘The other day the plumber came.. And I ended up hugging him because she asked me to,’ the actress recalled.
Anita’s arrival caused a stir in Spain where surrogacy is illegal.
However, it is lawful to adopt a child who was born abroad.
After she was born surrogate in the US, Anita was adopted by Ana and is legally her daughter.
But Ana faced criticism from those who oppose surrogacy, including Irene Montero, Spain’s equality minister, who branded surrogacy as a ‘form of violence against women’.
Her critical comments were echoed by Presidency Minister Felix Bolaños and Budget Minister Maria Jesus Montero.
But in her most recent comments, Ana dismissed those who criticised her decision to bring up her late son’s child.
‘There are criticisms and judgments. People can be judged, but it’s impossible to live without empathy,’ she said.
‘I believe that when fathers and mothers put themselves in my shoes and in my soul, in my pain… As I say, I was the owner of my pain. Now, I am the owner of my revival.’
