It’s likely a donor egg or maybe she had some frozen. |

| There’s a good chance Tana won’t be around for the wedding of her 6th child, let alone grandchildren. |
Timorrow isn't guaranteed for anyone. Who cares if she used a surrogate or didn't? This isn't your baby or your marriage Why not just say congrats and move on? |
| This is mental illness and narcissism. It is immoral, gross and disturbing. Just because you can buy a baby and buy a de facto modern slave to risk their life carrying it for you doesn’t mean you should. |
And much worse because they already have a ton of kids. I have sympathy for couples who do this out of desperation to have just one. My heart really breaks for people in that position. But these guys? It is unethical. |
This is a net negative for society. Currently it is only done on a small scale because only the super rich can afford the expense. But imagine the societal dysfunction if it were happenning on a large scale. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you ought to. |

I understand people's discomfort of feeling that Gordon and Tana are possibly not being truthful about their birth of their baby but that is their choice.
Myself, in my early 40's, is desperate to know. Not because I want to shame them, ridicule them, judge them or look down on them for whatever their decisions were but because it may give me hope for myself. Something I look for whenever I hear of a woman in their 40's having a baby, was it with the help of IVF, was it natural, are there any secrets or tips that may help myself of many other women out there desperate for a baby? Just for a glimmer of hope in the darkness of despair of the realisation that you are just too late, yet never have you had more to offer in my life. Sadly, for me I did not find the right person that I felt would be both an amazing husband and wonderdul dad, until late in life, too late biologically it seems. IVF is not an option for us due to finances. And although we still try, I have mentally and physically grieved the realisation that this may/will never happen for us, which has been an utterly harrowing journey. If only I knew then, what I know now. There are so many children out there that are unwanted, mistreated or unloved. The birth of this loved and wanted baby should be celebrated. Congratulations to Tana and Gordon on their beautiful baby boy, I say. No matter how he was conceived, carried or birthed, he is going to be one lucky little boy with a warm, happy and loving family and wonderful parents. Who are any of us to judge you and your choices? No-one has travelled the same journey as Tana and Gordon nor understands what, when, how or why. This should be a celebration of a beautiful new life, people be kind. 🙏 |
| After three miscarriages (20 weeks, 12 weeks & 9 weeks) I unfortunately went through menopause extremely early and by 40 couldn’t have anymore babies. Luckily I already had two boys. |
Why do you feel owed or entitled to their personal information or the child’s? I think it’s bizarre but each to their own. They can afford it. |
| They had baby #6 probably for #5 since he’s so much younger than their other children. They wanted him to have a sibling closer in age rather than one who is 20+ years older. They know they aren’t going to be around much longer and baby #5 would be all alone basically. |
+1. If I had to guess, Gordon’s wife is batsh-t and he’s probably only indulging her because he’s a serial cheater. |
| Uh as someone who is also 49 TRUST ME there is no WAY she carried and squirted out that kid. Even if she had an egg transplant .. I don’t think that would take. I wish they would just be honest. I think having a newborn at their ages is so selfish and irresponsible but that’s me 🤷♀️ |
She's lonely and filling a void. |
They wanted a sibling for Oscar because he is so much younger than his siblings. They both will be loved and well cared for. I only think they shouldn't have named him Jesse James. Any other middle name would have worked. They also could have done Felix which is super cute. |
