Tan revealed that he and Rob, who wed in 2007, found out about their surrogate’s pregnancy around the holiday season, per People. “It was the best feeling ever.

“We wanted him to have someone that will be his person that he’s tethered to,” Tan explained of the decision to grow their family. “I’m really close with my siblings and my husband is really close with his, so we wanted to create a family where [our child] would have more support other than just Rob and I.”
As Tan mentioned in his post, the happy news comes almost two years after he and Rob welcomed their son, Ismail France, via surrogate. “He came 7 weeks early, so he’s been in the NICU for the past 3 weeks. But, today, we finally got to bring him home,” Tan wrote on Instagram on July 10, 2021. “We love him so, so much. Like, fully obsessed. Our Surrogate is doing so great, post labor, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the greatest gift in our lives.” Rob posted the same photos and simply captioned them with: “My two loves.”
