“Surrogacy was a difficult decision to make,” she said, per People. “I would have loved that experience of growing the baby in your tummy and feeling the kicks and all of those exciting moments, but my life has just been so public, so even though the baby is biologically mine and Carter’s, we decided to have a surrogate carry him.”

Carter, 42, shared his concerns for his and Paris‘ children and detailed how the couple plans to navigate the challenges that come with their celebrity status.

“Now having a family with Paris, we want our family to grow up and be normal and not always be known as Paris Hilton’s children,” he said.

The author and businessman continued, “We have to think about safety. When we go to the farmer’s market, it’s one thing if someone stops and asks Paris for a photo. It’s a whole other thing with the baby in tow in a stroller. I don’t think we know everything the journey’s gonna throw at us, but we’re just gonna tackle it as we go.
