Ana Obregón dominates headlines in Spain and sparks calls for country to reconsider its ban
A 68-year-old Spanish actor’s decision to have a child via a surrogate in the US has set off a political firestorm in Spain, prompting criticism from four government ministers as well as renewed calls to reconsider Spain’s longstanding ban on the practice.
The TV star Ana Obregón dominated headlines across Spain a week after ¡Hola! magazine published a photo of her holding a newborn baby outside a hospital in Miami. The magazine explained that her baby girl had been born using a surrogate, three years after Obregón lost her son and only child, Aless Lequio, to cancer.
