MADRID – Sixty-eight-year-old Spanish television actress Ana Obregon said that her newly adopted daughter was conceived using her dead son’s frozen sperm, and is in fact her granddaughter.The weeks-old baby, named Ana Sandra, was born to a surrogate mother identified on Wednesday by the Lecturas magazine as a Cuban woman living in Miami, Florida.

“If that was my son’s last will and testament, how could I not do it?“ she said, adding that only parents who had lost a child have a right to express an opinion on the matter. iHola! reported on March 29 that Ms Obregon had adopted a child born through a surrogate pregnancy in Miami, sparking a debate in Spain where all forms of surrogacy – including so-called “altruistic” ones where no money changes hands – are illegal.“It is a form of violence against women,” said Equality Minister Montero, adding that there was a “clear poverty bias” with regard to women who become surrogate mothers due to financial need.
