Bushido and Anna-Maria Call Off Surrogacy, No More Children

They point to the strain of eight children plus Anna-Maria’s late doubts about using a surrogate.

Overview

  • Bushido and Anna-Maria Ferchichi said they have ended an advanced U.S. surrogacy plan and will not have more children.
  • The couple had worked with a Los Angeles agency, completed medical consultations, prepared two embryos, and identified two potential surrogates before canceling just ahead of the first payment.
  • They cited the daily demands of raising eight children and Anna-Maria’s growing unease with a process she felt she could not reverse once it started.
  • After moving back to Germany, they cut back on outside help, kept one new housekeeper after a trial, dismissed another after a single day for poor fit, and say they continue to pay their former nanny.
  • On their podcast, they described Bushido closing a Valentino store in Munich for a private try-on, a sign they still publicize lavish gestures even as they scale down household staffing.
