I was born in January, but has been trapped in Bangkok ever since because my surrogate “changed her mind”. My parents and their thai suporters have recently found out that the she planned from the very beginning to keep me because she wanted a mixed race baby for herself, not to help another couple fulfil their dream.
She did surrogacy completely voluntarily and receiving a compensation for that. Even she knew she was committing fraud.
Since March, the surrogate and her legal representative, have been repeatedly lying to the press and government officials about the surrogate’s intentions and her family situation, and making accusations of human trafficking - and now my parents have learned that they plan to accuse us of posting “naked” pictures of me to make money. They have also pressed child abduction charges, even though she signed consent for my parents to take me home from the hospital. They accused us to have more children and more surrogates because in a file the surrogate stole from us at the hospital, they found some “timelines” that they do not understand and they did not contrast to know what a “timeline” in IVF means. Just because there are other women names they think we have multiple surrogates.
My parents life is being destroyed and our family divided (my brother, Álvaro, is now back at home in Spain for his protection because they attempted kidnap with the help of a nanny worked with us) My parents are incurring enormous legal expenses to defend ourselves from the lies and accusations and to petition legal custody of me.
The Thai public’s support is amazing, we have over 130,000 signatures on our Change.org petition and over 93,000 likes on our Facebook page. Some of my fans have has also started a fake surrogate facebook page which has over 22,000 likes and is where supporters are sending proof against the lies and mis-statements of the surrogate and her representative...this proof is in the form of evidence found in Facebook, pointing out mis-statements in the Thai television interviews, and most importantly private messages in Facebook with various contacts very close to both the surrogate and her representative, providing us with information and messages of support.
Our international human rights are being infringed upon because the law that should help us does not include homosexual couple even though my parents are legally married in their respective countries, the U.S. and Spain. Also I am an American citizen already and I am not able to leave although it is obviously is in my best interest.
