US Surrogate Reveals Links to Chinese Billionaire Xu Bo
· World · Hindustan Times, Indian Express, Times of India
A US woman identified as Judy entered a surrogacy agreement through the agency Patriot Conception without initially knowing the intended father was Chinese billionaire Xu Bo. Judy, a single mother, sought the $120,000 payment to improve her financial situation but later discovered Xu Bo had hired multiple surrogates simultaneously. While reports have accused Xu Bo of fathering over 100 children through surrogacy, his representatives have disputed these figures and stated he has custody of 12 children. The case has sparked criticism regarding the limited regulation of the US commercial surrogacy industry and the lack of transparency for surrogates.
