| Preity Zinta |
The Bollywood star surprised fans by announcing the birth of her twins via surrogacy in 2021. But the road to that moment was paved with patience, privacy, and personal strength.
Preity Zinta was once the vibrant face of early 2000s Bollywood — radiant, fearless, and full of charm. But behind the scenes, the actress was on a deeply personal journey that she chose to keep away from the public eye: her path to motherhood through IVF and surrogacy.
In November 2021, Preity took to Instagram to share unexpected news — she and her husband, Gene Goodenough, had welcomed twins via surrogacy. The announcement was quiet and heartfelt, expressing gratitude toward their surrogate and medical team: “Gene & I are overjoyed & our hearts are filled with so much gratitude and with so much love as we welcome our twins Jai Zinta Goodenough & Gia Zinta Goodenough into our family.”
Though she never publicly detailed her IVF journey, the choice to opt for surrogacy hinted at a long, thoughtful process. Preity, who married in 2016 and moved to the United States, maintained a low profile in recent years, away from Bollywood’s daily headlines. But this life chapter brought her back into the spotlight — on her own terms.
The actress has since spoken about the joy and chaos of twin parenting, sharing occasional glimpses into her new life. But true to her nature, she has protected her children's privacy while opening up about the beauty of motherhood when it felt right for her.
Preity Zinta’s IVF journey may have remained private, but its message resonates loudly: motherhood doesn’t have a deadline, and there’s no single way to build a family. Her story adds to the growing narrative of Bollywood stars choosing surrogacy with grace, strength, and dignity.
Behind the smiles and silence was a story of courage—and a woman waiting for the right moment to become a mother.
