A dispute involving a surrogate and the baby’s biological parents centers on conflicting decisions during the pregnancy and a custody fight after birth. The biological parents, Nausheen Gilkar and Omar Ahmed, have publicly discussed their account of events, while the surrogate, McKenna West, is seeking sole custody.
According to the outlet, the couple’s stated intention was to end the pregnancy, and they describe the “real reason” they fought to abort their biological child. The coverage frames their public comments as a response to the ongoing legal battle, in which the surrogate challenges the biological parents’ position and seeks custody.
While the presented reporting focuses on the biological parents’ explanation for why they wanted the pregnancy terminated, it is also part of a wider custody disagreement in which different parties support different outcomes. The account shared by Gilkar and Ahmed contrasts with the surrogate’s legal stance as reflected in the reported request for sole custody.
