Rosanna Davison shared a heartfelt post yesterday for International Women’s Day. Dedicated to her little girl, Sophia she said; “I dream that my daughter and all the women of the future grow up in a world of gender equality, where their personality, skills, vision, qualifications, resilience and contribution to society are valued above all else.”
Rosanna has recently opened up to VIP Magazine and on the Late Late Show on the struggles she went through trying to conceive and ultimately her decisions to use surrogacy. In total she revealed that she had fourteen miscarriages as she tried for a baby.
She also shared that “it’s a lonely traumatic experience” and that Mother’s Day and Christmas were the hardest as Christmas especially is so child focused.
They named their little girl Sophia, after St Sofias Cathedral which they were staying beside in Kiev during the egg retrieval process.
When asked about why she decided to be so public with their surrogacy journey Rosanna said;
“we want to give hope and inspiration to other couples who are in our situation” and that “it’s a lonely road, a traumatic and difficult road for an awful lot of people.”
