A HIGH-RISK PREGNANCY

Kandi's pregnancy with Ace was high risk, and she was advised that another would be even riskier. Kandi was inspired by Andy Cohen's example and decided to have her two remaining embryos carried to term by a surrogate.

THE WAITING IS THE HARDEST PART

Now all that remains for Kandi and Todd to do is to wait out the remaining months of gestation and hope for the best.

Kandi and Todd have just celebrated their five-year wedding anniversary with a romantic getaway to Thailand, and we hope that in a few months they will be celebrating another joyous event, and welcoming their little daughter home.
