TMZ reported the ๐๐๐๐ฆ was ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ง on Saturday in a Southern California hospital. The couple were spotted near San Diego at a dog beach the day before the little girl was ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ง.
Daily Mailย reported the arrival of the ๐๐๐๐ฆ is very premature with the surrogate giving ๐๐ข๐ซ๐ญ๐ก at 27 weeks โ 12 weeks ahead of the expected delivery date.
The report stated the ๐๐๐๐ฆ was due in April and Priyanka had planned her work schedule around the due date but the early arrival changed everything.
The ๐๐๐๐ฆ is expected to remain in hospital under the care of doctors until she is healthy enough to go home with the Hollywood couple.
So, why surrogacy?
