Claudia, an actress, singer, dancer, and theater producer, announced last year, at the age of 55, that she got pregnant naturally, even though she had entered menopause since she was 50.
Claudia Raia, a Brazilian celebrity, has informed her 8.6 million followers that she has given birth to her son, Luca, whom she conceived naturally after a previous failed IVF attempt with frozen eggs. Her pregnancy was described as a miracle, as, as she stated, even the doctors did not believe that she got pregnant without the help of science.
“We did it. Since I gave birth, the world has taken on a new color for our family. We are overflowing with happiness and love! Welcome, Luca!” the overjoyed mom wrote on Instagram.
Luca is her third child – she has two older children from one of her previous marriages. He is her first child with her partner. Raia said she decided to freeze her eggs at 48 but was told she had started menopause at 50. In 2021, they decided to try for a baby via IVF, but no embryos formed, so she decided “it wasn’t supposed to be.”
She then opened up about the criticism she received for getting pregnant at such an old age, advising her critics to “have more empathy.”
“Let people have children whenever and wherever they want. Let women get pregnant when they feel ready to get pregnant,” he said. “Of course, it’s rare to get pregnant at that age, but it does happen.”
Since then, they have been excitedly awaiting the birth of their first child together, even sharing a video of the baby’s nursery on Instagram, and posing for the cover of Casa Vogue Brasil.
