Bringing Up Bates: How Are Michaela Bates & Brandon Keilen Today?
Despite their heartbreaking situation, Michaela and Brandon continue to spread positivity online. The Bringing Up Bates stars have been uploading art projects on YouTube with some of their nephews and nieces. One of their latest vlogs is an art tutorial about how to draw a deer. Brandon taught his brother-in-law, Judson, and the two had a blast with their bonding time.
There are also times with Michaela and Brandon uploading Q&A vlogs. They’ve been thankful for the support they’ve been receiving amid their infertility struggles. However, Michaela clarified that they’re going to keep things private if they’re ever going for adoption again. This comes after the married couple revealed that they failed one adoption attempt.
Family Member A Surrogate For Michaela?
Some Redditors discussed the possibility that Michaela Bates Keilen will get help from a family member regarding her infertility struggles. According to the poster, they’re wondering if one of her siblings will volunteer as a surrogate for her and Brandon. The Bringing Up Bates star has yet to acknowledge such a solution. However, several commenters think it most likely won’t happen, especially considering the history of blood clotting disorders in several Bates daughters. Michaela has also mentioned losing the option for IVF, leaving her with only adoption.
- “I doubt it – their blood clotting disorder makes pregnancy risky & tough for them,especially while they are all still growing their own families. Josie was seeing a high risk OB. And Alyssa has the heart issue and gets really sick with pregnancy. None of the sisters have had “easy” pregnancies.”
- “They wouldn’t do it because creating embryos and not using them is seen as abortion.”
- “A doctor said none of her sisters could be a surrogate, since a few have the blood clotting disorder.”
- “Someone said on here ages ago, to be a surrogate you can’t be intimate with your partner/ husband. So there is no way any of the husbands would agree with this.”
