A wealthy couple has sparked outrage after it was revealed they used surrogate mothers to acquire 21 children, including 17 toddlers, and housed them in a mansion staffed by a team of nannies.
The couple, whose identities remain protected, allegedly exploited legal loopholes in international surrogacy arrangements to build their unconventional family. Reports suggest they paid substantial sums to surrogate mothers across multiple countries.
A Troubling Lifestyle
Neighbours describe the mansion as constantly bustling with activity, with nannies working in shifts to care for the children. Sources claim the biological parents spend limited time with their offspring, delegating most parenting duties to hired help.
Ethical Concerns Raised
Child welfare experts have expressed serious concerns about this arrangement. "This appears to be treating children as commodities rather than human beings," said one leading child psychologist. "The emotional needs of so many young children cannot possibly be met in this environment."
Authorities are reportedly investigating whether any laws have been broken, though the legal framework surrounding international surrogacy remains complex and poorly regulated.
