Veteran Spanish actress says surrogate baby is granddaughter

Less than one week after Spanish television actress Ana Obregón sparked criticism for welcoming a baby via surrogacy in the United States, Obregón has now said the infant is actually the daughter of her late son.

The 68-year-old actor told ¡Hola! magazine on 5 April that the baby was fathered by her son Aless Lequio García, who died from cancer in 2020 aged 27. “This girl isn’t my daughter, she’s my granddaughter,” she told the outlet. “This was Aless’s final wish, to bring a child of his own into the world.”
