A new update in Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan’s surrogacy row has claimed that the couple has been legally married for six years now.
Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan’s surrogacy row has witnessed a new twist. Last Sunday, Nayanthara and Vignesh announced that they have welcomed twins, two boys. While the couple has not confirmed it, buzz about a possible surrogacy being involved in the process became an instant discussion online. To make things tough, Tamil Nadu Health Minister Ma Subramanian also raised questions about the procedure used to welcome the children. It was also reported that an inquiry will be taking place.
Now, it has been reported that Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan have submitted an affidavit to the Tamil Nadu health department. As per a report by Free Press Journal, the affidavit revealed that Nayanthara and Vignesh got their marriage registered six years ago. The couple has reportedly submitted their marriage documents with the affidavit.
The couple has also reportedly revealed that the surrogate mother is Nayanthara’s relative. She is said to be a resident of the UAE. It is also said that the state government has identified the Chennai hospital where the twins were born.
As per the surrogacy act of 2021, any couple who wants to opt for surrogacy needs to be married for five or more years and the surrogate has to be a close relative of the aspiring parent. Given these rules, Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan are maintaining that they have followed all the rules and procedures diligently. News18 cannot confirm the authenticity of these reports.
