USA staarajakirjanik sai surrogaatema abil isaks

CNNi kauane teleajakirjanik Anderson Cooper (52) teatas ootamatut uudist: ta sai isaks. "Geipoisina ei uskunud ma, et ma võiksin eales last saada."

Cooper jagas oma fännidega rõõmusõnumit Instagrami vahendusel. Ta oli saanud surrogaatema abil poja, kes kannab nüüd nime Wyatt Morgan Cooper. "Ta on armas ja pehme ja terve ja ma olen üle mõistuse õnnelik."

I want to share with you some joyful news. On Monday, I became a father. This is Wyatt Cooper. He is three days old. He is named after my father, who died when I was ten. I hope I can be as good a dad as he was. My son's middle name is Morgan. It's a family name on my mom's side. I know my mom and dad liked the name morgan because I recently found a list they made 52 years ago when they were trying to think of names for me. Wyatt Morgan Cooper. My son. He was 7.2 lbs at birth, and he is sweet, and soft, and healthy and I am beyond happy. As a gay kid, I never thought it would be possible to have a child, and I’m grateful for all those who have paved the way, and for the doctors and nurses and everyone involved in my son's birth. Most of all, I am grateful to a remarkable surrogate who carried Wyatt, and watched over him lovingly, and tenderly, and gave birth to him. It is an extraordinary blessing - what she, and all surrogates give to families who cant have children. My surrogate has a beautiful family of her own, a wonderfully supportive husband, and kids, and I am incredibly thankful for all the support they have given Wyatt and me. My family is blessed to have this family in our lives I do wish my mom and dad and my brother, Carter, were alive to meet Wyatt, but I like to believe they can see him. I imagine them all together, arms around each other, smiling and laughing, happy to know that their love is alive in me and in Wyatt, and that our family continues.

Saatest "Anderson Cooper 360°" tuntud teletäht seletas, et Wyatti nime kandis tema isa, kes suri, kui ta oli kümnene. Staarajakirjaniku ema oli kõmuline USA seltskonnakaunitar ja moedisainer Gloria Vanderbilt, kes suri mullu suvel 95 aasta vanuses. "Mu poja teine eesnimi on Morgan. See on mu ema suguvõsast pärit perekonnanimi. Teadsin, et emale-isale meeldis Morgani nimi, sest leidsin hiljuti nimekirja, mille nad olid teinud 52 aastat tagasi minu jaoks nimesid välja mõeldes."

2012. aastal tagasi kapist välja tulnud Cooper tunnistas, et poleks poisina eales arvanud, et gei võib isaks saaks. "Olen tänulik kõigile, kes on mulle teed sillutanud, ning arstidele ja õdedele ja kõigile, kes mu poja sünniga seotud olid. Ennekõike olen tänulik vapustavale surrogaatemale, kes Wyattit kandis ja teda hellalt valvas ning ta ilmale tõi."
