Surrogate pregnant - now Caprice is expecting too

Model Caprice is expecting a baby just a month after a surrogate mother is expected to give birth for her.

The celebrity learned she was pregnant earlier this year only months after her surrogate confirmed she was carrying a child for her and her partner Ty Comfort.

The couple opted for a gestational surrogacy, where their sperm and egg are used to create an embryo in a laboratory before being transferred to another woman’s womb, after being told they were unlikely to conceive naturally.

Caprice, who designs a range of lingerie, said the couple were “delighted” when they discovered the news.

Speaking to The Sun newspaper, she said: "We are incredibly delighted. Words can't describe the happiness that we felt when we knew we were expecting our two miracle babies.

"Our gestational carrier is part of my family now and I'm forever grateful for the kindness and selflessness she has shown us by taking such good care of our beautiful little baby.

"Like every career woman I worked so hard at being successful, I left it a little late. But then to fall pregnant after out gestational carer did was an astonishing miracle."

"We have found out the sex of both babies but we're keeping it to ourselves for now.

"My mum is so excited she has already bought enough baby clothes to fill a country! Now everything I do is for my babies and Ty."

Caprice and Comfort are currently renovating their plush house in Notting Hill, London, ready for their new arrivals, which will be born in the US, but brought up in the UK.
