A 23-year-old Russian mother, Christina, resides in Batumi, Georgia, with her eldest child, Vika, and her 56-year-old billionaire husband, Galip, who was born six years before her. Despite already having a family, Christina was determined to expand, opting to pay nine surrogates £7,000 each to carry their 10 biological children.
In an interview with "Closer" magazine, Christina expressed her preference for having children of the same age growing up together, emphasizing the use of surrogacy to ensure all the children were genetically theirs. Having given birth before, Christina didn't feel like she lost anything by using surrogates and asserted her and Galip's complete investment in each pregnancy.
While the couple didn't know the surrogates personally, Christina highlighted their concern about the surrogates' nutrition, prompting her to develop a meal plan. Despite not holding the newborns, she emphasized her readiness to care for them when they were born in March 2020, stating it kept her healthy.
Transforming from a single mother to having 10 children under one roof in 10 months, Christina hired 11 nannies working around the clock to assist in childcare. She shared her daily schedule, starting with waking up at 6:30 a.m., playing with the children, preparing meals, taking walks, and spending afternoons reading and watching cartoons.
Earlier this year, Christina and Galip expressed their willingness to pay up to $800,000 for 100 births, even contemplating having up to 105 children, announcing their ambitious family plans on social media. Christina's goal is to give birth to 12 children each year for the next seven years, aiming to raise them all before turning 30.
