The couple are now having a child together, with the help of a surrogate, and fans are peppering them with questions about their family plans.
In a recent livestream, Quran answered questions from viewers as Cheryl prepared for her 64th birthday and revealed that their daughter is due on December 27.
He also dropped the baby’s name: Aliyah Leree McCain.
“We’re finally having a baby,” Cheryl added.
“A surrogate mother will give birth to our child.”
She also waved to the camera and said, “As you can see, I’m still alive.
“Do I look alive or dead?
“Because they say I’m dead.
“Am I alive or dead now?”
Cheryl then jokingly tilted her head to the side to pretend she was “dead”.
At that moment the Quran said, “Honey, please don’t do that!”
“Confirms she is a surrogate and you can clearly see she is still with us,” the person wrote in the caption after sharing the livestream clip on TikTok.
People immediately reacted to the video. One of them wrote: “People are so mean!
“Congratulations, if you’re all happy, that’s all that matters.”
“I wonder why everyone is saying that,” added another.
“They should be ashamed of themselves.
What is surrogacy?
Surrogacy is a form of pregnancy in which one woman carries and gives birth to another woman’s child.
The surrogate mother is then expected to give up the child at birth so that it can be raised by the couple who originally wanted the child.
Surrogacy is often an option for people who cannot have children of their own, or for same-sex couples.
According to a surrogacy charity Overcoming Childlessness Through Surrogacy (COTS)There are two different types of surrogacy.
- Traditional surrogacy: When the surrogate mother uses her own egg, fertilized with the sperm of the intended father.
- Surrogacy: The surrogate mother carries the genetic child of the intended parent, conceived through IVF. This requires specialized doctors.
How are surrogate mothers conceived?
In traditional surrogacy procedures, the egg is artificially inseminated using a syringe.
Surrogacy is performed through IVF.
In vitro fertilization involves retrieving the egg from the woman’s ovaries and fertilizing it with sperm in a laboratory.
The embryo is then placed in the surrogate mother’s uterus, where it can grow and develop.
This procedure must be performed by specialized doctors and it is necessary that the biological mother still has functioning ovaries.
“Keep doing what you’re doing, you’re an amazing couple.”
“I’m happy for you guys, ignore the haters and enjoy this joyful time,” said a third.
“How wonderful that you are having a beautiful girl!” said someone else.
“Congratulations on your pregnancy, you picked an amazing name for her!” added another.
Cheryl and Quran recently announced that they are having a baby girl during a rather chaotic gender reveal.
The 17-year-old grandmother first met Quran when he was 15 and working in a fast food restaurant run by her son.
A few years later, their relationship blossomed and in September 2021 they got married.
Since the wedding, the couple have been open about their desire to start a family of their own, despite Cheryl already having seven children in their 30s and 40s.
