She shared more details about the abortion she had in her 20s, saying that the baby would have &#8220;jeopardized the forever family I hoped to have&#8230;&#8221; and how she is trying to create a daughter to join her\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/abortion-ivf-surrogacy-commodification-paris-hilton\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">20 sons currently frozen<\/a> in their embryonic stage of life.<\/p>\n<p>She also doubled down on the fact that she underwent IVF to create the <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/paris-hilton-started-ivf-pick-twins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">twins<\/a> she wanted\u00a0\u2014 but not because of infertility issues. Instead, Hilton had other reasons for her decision.<\/p>\n<h3>Choosing IVF and surrogacy without infertility<\/h3>\n<p>Hilton explained that she and her husband, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-11697831\/Paris-Hiltons-stepdaughter-abandoned-bio-dad-Carter-Reum.html\">Carter Reum<\/a>,\u00a0started a family on their &#8220;own terms&#8221; when they &#8220;were both ready to be parents.&#8221; This mindset has become increasingly common, but it causes a child&#8217;s <em>life<\/em>\u00a0to be about the parents&#8217; <em>wants and desires<\/em>. Under this line of thinking, if the child doesn&#8217;t fit the parents&#8217; ideal, she can be destroyed. Reum already has a 10-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, with whom he allegedly has no relationship.<\/p>\n<p>During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the couple began making embryos. They eventually hired a surrogate, but not because they were dealing with infertility \u2014 as Hilton has made clear.\u00a0When her mother, Kathy Hilton, shared that Paris Hilton was struggling with infertility, Paris was quick to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pagesix.com\/2022\/12\/08\/paris-hilton-has-eggs-all-ready-after-shutting-down-fertility-struggles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fire back<\/a>\u00a0that she didn&#8217;t know where her mother got that information and that she had &#8220;lots of healthy embryos ready and waiting&#8230;&#8221; At that point, baby Phoenix was just weeks from being born via surrogate\u00a0\u2014 a secret Hilton had kept from even her mother.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glamourmagazine.co.uk\/article\/paris-hilton-interview-2023\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Glamour<\/a>, Hilton was asked if she used a surrogate because of her age (42). Hilton said that even if she were 20, she would have used a surrogate.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m just so scared,&#8221; she said. She mentioned the abuse she suffered at Provo Canyon School in Utah, and noted that those experiences and others made her afraid of doctor&#8217;s offices. &#8220;The shots, the IVs that they put in&#8230; When I was in The Simple Life, I had to be in a room when a woman was giving birth and that traumatised me as well. But I want a family so bad, it&#8217;s just the physical part of doing it. I&#8217;m just so scared&#8230; childbirth and death are the two things that scare me more than anything in the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yet egg retrieval involves needles, doctor&#8217;s visits, and plenty of prodding and poking. She said it herself. &#8220;Month after month of injections, several egg-harvesting procedures, more IVF injections, new ADHD meds, my natural state of chaos \u2014 it was a lot. The shots are painful,&#8221; she said. &#8220;At times, I felt like I couldn&#8217;t take it anymore.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/walgreens-cvs-petition\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-283198\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--700x180.jpg\" alt=\"Walgreens CVS banner\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--700x180.jpg 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--300x77.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--768x197.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--500x128.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>READ: <em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/abortion-ivf-surrogacy-commodification-paris-hilton\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Paris Hilton\u2019s children aren\u2019t designer handbags, and shouldn\u2019t be treated as if they are<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Is Paris Hilton designing children?<\/h3>\n<p>Though she denies struggling with infertility, Hilton has <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/paris-hilton-started-ivf-pick-twins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a> she utilized IVF to have &#8220;twins if I like,&#8221; and would use a surrogate at any age. And yet, Hilton paints her journey to motherhood as one on par with women who deal with infertility.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve always wanted twins: a boy and a girl. &#8216;It&#8217;s possible,&#8217; our doctor said. &#8216;In a perfect world&#8230;&#8217; If only my world were as perfect as it looks. For so many people, having babies is like plug and play, right? That&#8217;s how it seems anyway. And when you want a baby, it seems like everyone around you is getting pregnant. It sucks, but I&#8217;m not alone in this either. There are so many young women at the fertility doctor&#8217;s office, so many families waiting to happen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She added, &#8220;That&#8217;s what IVF is all about. Possibility. Hope. It&#8217;s hard, but you&#8217;re willing to go through anything to find your heart&#8217;s desire.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Some women struggling to become pregnant found Hilton&#8217;s use of IVF to create designer babies\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CKkSWaghavx\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">upsetting<\/a>. Research shows that IVF actually <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/ivf-destroys-embryos-higher-rate-abortion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">destroys<\/a> embryos at a higher rate than abortion does, making <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/adoption-ivf-surrogacy-need-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">adoption<\/a> the pro-life option. But Hilton&#8217;s words lacked understanding and compassion for women with infertility.<\/p>\n<p>Hilton said her newborn son, Phoenix Barron Hilton Reum, is &#8220;the child I was always meant to raise.&#8221; This seemingly loving statement is laced with undertones of high expectations for Phoenix to live up to. This statement is also tragic, as Hilton <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/paris-hilton-baby-aborted-jeopardized-forever-family\/\">aborted a child<\/a> two decades ago when she was neither in a dire situation nor unable to raise a child.<\/p>\n<p>A woman named Claire explained what it feels like to <em>be<\/em> a child created through the process of IVF.

They deserved a child. And with an attitude like that, by the time I was born they thought they deserved to have the perfect child\u2026 as Dad defined a perfect child. And since they deserved a child, I was their property to be controlled, not a person or a gift to be treasured. <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 25px;\"><em>And when I at last became an adult with my own opinions and thoughts, an adult who could stand up for herself, I was simply removed from their lives.
