Chinese Billionaire Reportedly Fathered Over 100 Children Through US Surrogacy

Chinese gaming entrepreneur Xu Bo is reported to have fathered more than 100 children through surrogacy arrangements in the United States, renewing debate over oversight in the industry and birthright citizenship. A California surrogate said she was initially told she would be carrying a child for a single father hoping to have a large family. She reportedly received an offer of $120,000 and later learned from leaked documents that Xu was named as the intended father. The reported number of Xu’s children is disputed. His former partner has alleged the figure could be as high as 300, while his company previously said he had slightly over 100 children through US surrogacy. Xu has recently said he has custody of 12 children born through surrogacy in the US. The case also highlights concerns raised by investigations into agencies that market US citizenship as an advantage to foreign intended parents.
