A 23-year-old woman with 11 children, 10 childbirth at the same time… “No plans to stop”

– The story of a 23-year-old woman with 11 children in Georgia, a European Black Sea coastal country, has recently been introduced and has been controversial.

British Mirror.com reported on the 16th (local time) that Christina Ozturk got all the other 10 people through a surrogate mother, except for her daughter, Vika (6), who gave birth.

In particular, all of the children have not passed their first birthday. This is because they were born at the same time through contracts with several surrogate mothers.

According to Mirror.com, Christina, who was a single mother, visited Batumi on the Black Sea on vacation and met her husband, Galib Ozturk, 56, there. The property owners of the hotel, Galip and Christina, fell in love at first sight. Then, shortly afterward, Christina moved to Gallip’s mansion.

Christina said of Galib, “Although I’m old, I’m a great adviser to me and a fairy-tale prince.” Galib also praised Christina as her “ideal wife.”

The reason why they got many children through surrogate mothers is because a large family is a dream. Christina confessed, “My husband wanted to have a lot of children, and I readily accepted his hopes. This is why they decided to have children through contracts with several surrogate mothers.

“I didn’t give up on giving birth,” he said.

Christina introduced 10 children on Instagram. They are all said to be under the age of one.

“I don’t know how many, but there are no plans to stop at 10,” he said. “I’m not ready to talk about the final number of children.”

A surrogate mother is legal in Georgia. The cost is known to be around 8,000 euros (about 10 million won) per time.

On this, opinions are divided on SNS. Negative opinions such as “I seem to think of a child like a toy”, “There are ethical problems,” “How do you solve inheritance problems?” “What will happen to children if they are divorced?” There are also opinions that there is no such thing as a problem.
