Ana Obregón Shares Update on Baby Born Using Her Late Son’s Sperm
Spanish actress and TV personality Ana Obregón has shared a personal update about her granddaughter, Ana Sandra, who was born in 2023 through surrogacy in the United States. The child was conceived using the preserved sperm of Ana’s late son, Aless Lequio, who passed away in 2020 at the age of 27 after a battle with cancer.
📌 This story has gained attention across international media, both for its emotional background and legal context.
Obregón has clarified that Ana Sandra is her granddaughter, not her daughter, and that she took this step to honor her son’s wishes. She explained that before his passing, Aless had spoken about becoming a father. After his death, his sperm was preserved and later used for a surrogacy process in Miami, Florida.
🍼 The child was born in March 2023. Since then, Obregón has been raising her in the U.S., where surrogacy is legal — unlike in Spain, where such arrangements are currently prohibited.
In her recent interviews, Ana says the arrival of Ana Sandra has given her life new meaning. She also shared that she plans to tell the child all about her father and the love he had for life and family.
🎙️ “This is not my daughter; she is my granddaughter,” Obregón stated publicly, adding that she believes she is simply continuing her son’s legacy.
While the story has sparked debate in Spain and beyond about surrogacy laws and ethics, Obregón has received support from fans who understand this was a deeply personal decision.
💬 The actress has also shared several moments of her life with Ana Sandra on social media, showing the bond they’ve formed.
As the child grows, Obregón hopes to raise her with love, guidance, and a strong connection to the memory of her father.
