A woman, 24, who welcomed TWENTY ONE surrogate babies in just over a year with millionaire husband, 57, insists she’s still a ‘hands-on mum’ despite spending $100,000 on 16 nannies
A woman has welcomed 21 surrogate babies in just over a year with her millionaire husband – and insists she’s still a ‘hands-on mother’ despite spending £67,700 every 12 months on 16 nannies.
Kristina Ozturk, 24, who is originally from Moscow, wants a staggering 105 biological children with her wealthy hotel owner husband Galip Ozturk, 57, who she met while holidaying in the coastal town of Batumi in Georgia.
The couple have so far paid €168,000 (£142,000) to surrogates between March 2020 and July this year, and spend $96,000 (£67,700) a year on 16 live-in nannies.
However, speaking to Fabulous, Kristina, who also lives with her six-year-old daughter Vika from a previous relationship, insisted: ‘I’m with the kids all the time, doing all the things that mums normally do.’
The parent – who reportedly lives in a three-storey mansion with her family – previously said she and Galip opted to use surrogate mothers because they wanted to have as many children as quickly possible.
Their first child Mustafa was born on March 10 2020 while their most recent addition, and 21st child together Judy, is just three months old.
‘I can tell you one thing – my days are never boring. Each day is different, from planning staff schedules to shopping for my family,’ said Kristina when telling the publication about her routine.
Kristina, who spends £4,000 a week on essentials for the babies, including 20 large bags of nappies and 53 packs of baby formula, shares updates about her hectic life to her Instagram account, where she has 162,000 followers.
Kristina and Ozturk’s babies are Mustafa, 19 months; Mariam, 18 months; Ayrin, 18 months; Alisa, 18 months; Hasan, 17 months; Judi, 17 months; Harper, 16 months; Teresa, 16 months; Huseyin, 16 months and Anna, 15 months.
As well as Isabella, 15 months; Ismail, 14 months; Mehmet, 14 months; Ahmet, 14 months; Ali, 13 months; Kristina, 13 months; Sara, one; Lokman, one; Galip, 11 months; Olivia, nine months and Judy, three months.
Kristina who is originally from Russia, was a single mother when she decided to take a break by going to the sea in Batumi.
The popular tourism destination at the foot of the Caucasus is often referred to as the ‘Las Vegas of the Black Sea’.
She said it was love at first sight when she met Galip, a property and transport magnate originally from Turkey, on the first day there, and described him as her ‘mentor, guide and fairytale prince all rolled into one’.
Agreeing it was love at first sight, Galip added: ‘She is so easy to be with, she always has a smile on her lips and yet at the same time is shy and mysterious.
‘She was the kind of wife I always wanted for myself, an uncut diamond where I saw what a pure and kind heart she had.’
Things progressed quickly for the couple, with Kristina and her young daughter Vika moving to Batumi to be with Galip.
Kristina said that despite the fact Galip was a lot older than her, and had adult children of his own, he had no objections to having a large family.
The couple agreed that they wanted as many children as they could.
Kristina said they were originally preparing to have a baby every year, however quickly realised that her reproductive ability was not enough to meet their demands.
They decided to use surrogate mothers, which costs around $9,707 each pregnancy.
