Surrogacy With The Stars!
Congratulations to Marissa Jaret Winokur and Judah Miller!
The couple became parents yesterday, when their surrogate mother delivered their first son, Zev Isaac Miller, according to People. In case you wonder how this represents a pop culture/law collision, Popsquire has one word for you…CONTRACTS!
Some states require a contract among all parties to the surrogacy birthing arrangement, and there are often requirements that the contract address certain issues. Further, some infertility clinics require a contract between the infertile couple and the surrogate in the event that a dispute develops between the infertile couple and the surrogate as to biological parenthood, parental rights, and custodial aspects of the child to be born.
In celebration of the new addition to Marissa’s family, enjoy this TLC classic, “Baby, Baby, Baby.”
