A TikTok couple with an almost 40-year age gap say their surrogacy journey has taken a painful turn, claiming the woman carrying their child is now planning to keep the baby.
TikToker Quran McCain, 26, and his wife Cheryl, 63 have built a large audience online and often share personal updates publicly. In a recent video posted to their account (@kingqurannewpage), they told followers they are dealing with emotional stress while waiting for clarity about the pregnancy.

Why They Say the Situation Became Complicated
The couple stated they were not fully prepared for the circumstances surrounding the pregnancy. They also alleged the surrogate has substance abuse issues, and said they were forced to use the surrogate’s egg rather than Cheryl’s because of Cheryl’s age.
They further said the surrogate is currently incarcerated, and argued the baby would have a better life with them.
Conflicting Conception Timing Raised Questions
According to the couple, doctors estimated the baby was conceived on March 5, but the official insemination procedure reportedly took place on March 12. This difference led them to worry about who the baby’s biological parents are.

Quran said they believe the surrogate should have participated in a DNA test, but claimed that did not happen. He also said they are trying not to dwell on the situation and that, for now, all they can do is wait for answers.
