Kandi has often expressed that the couple’s pregnancy journey has been rocky. In early November, the mother of 4 revealed that while her surrogate was initially pregnant with twin girls, one of the embryos did not survive. “We actually were supposed to be having twins, and then one of them didn’t’ continue,” Kandi explained. “I was sad at first, but then I just had to be grateful that the one made it.”
The “Who Can I Run To” singer admitted that this pregnancy was “bittersweet” and was something that the couple struggled with at first.
“To allow somebody to carry my child inside of them? It was a tough decision to make … I just feel like this whole situation is strange,” Kandi expressed. “I don’t get to be excited about the first kick. I don’t get to be excited about ‘Oh, not my baby bump is showing.’ I don’t get to be excited even about my boobs filling up with milk,” she continued. “You have this guilt and sadness. So, it’s a joyous, yet interesting experience.”
