The couple is expecting their first baby together.
Cheryl McGregor, a 63-year-old grandmother, and her 26-year-old husband, Quran McCain, are eagerly anticipating the arrival of their first child together.
The couple, who have gained a significant following on social media, shared this exciting news through a video that resonated with their fans.
They decided to have a baby through surrogacy
The Georgia-based couple revealed that their chosen surrogate is now pregnant.
McGregor expressed her enthusiasm in the video, exclaiming, “It’s finally happening, we’re starting our family.”
Despite McGregor being capable of providing a viable egg, the couple decided to have their first child through surrogacy.
Their surrogate became pregnant using McCain’s sperm, and the couple intends to adopt the baby once it is born.
McGregor joyfully added, “We’re very excited about it. We can’t wait!”
This upcoming addition to their family will make McGregor a mother of eight.
She already has seven children in their 30s and 40s, as well as 17 grandchildren.
They once being scammed by a chosen surrogate.
However, the road to expanding their family hasn’t been without challenges.
Last year, their initial attempt at surrogacy ended in heartache.
The surrogate allegedly violated their contract by having unprotected sex with her partner during the fertilization process.
McCain expressed his frustration, stating, “It just feels like we’re always getting screwed over.”
Reflecting on their journey, McCain acknowledged that they have encountered people who have reached out to them for the wrong reasons.
Financial difficulties during the surrogate journey
Financial difficulties have also posed challenges for the couple.
They have supported their first surrogate financially, only to have the process fall through.
Despite these setbacks, their relationship has remained strong since reconnecting in 2012.
McCain initially met McGregor while working at a fast food restaurant managed by her son, Chris.
It was only years later, after comforting McGregor during a difficult time, that their romantic feelings blossomed.
As news of Cheryl McGregor and Quran McCain’s surrogacy journey broke, social media users expressed a mix of surprise, curiosity, and well-wishes.
The couple has been documenting their relationship videos.
The one memorable moment was McCain’s romantic proposal at an Olive Garden restaurant in July 2021.
Now, they are embarking on a new chapter as they prepare to become parents together for the first time.
Social media reaction
Not only is this crazy it’s also dangerous. A woman that age, the incidence of have a child with a disability is greater.
Why would you want to bring a child into this world only to suffer? One user asked.
First she is not pregnant her eggs are done. And who ever agreed to be a a surrogate for them is sick too and is only doing it for the money because she won’t even live long enough.
If she does won’t be able to get off her death bed to see this poor baby start school. And they r not thinking about this child’s future, the second user explained.
I wish they’d get control over all this bullshit that’s posted on our news feed, the third user commented.
Well done there’s still hope for us all I’m 41 and no kids I want to have some kids one day, another wrote.
How incredibly selfish! That child will end up taking care of that woman. The child will be 20 and that woman will be 83. Just selfish, someone said.
