TRANS dad of three, Aaden, gave birth to twins at the age of just 19. Having only started his transition a year before, Aaden suddenly realised he wanted children - so, pausing his hormone treatment, he underwent IUI and soon found out he was expecting twins. Aaden welcomed Carter and Quinn (now four years old) into the world and raised them as a single dad, until he met partner, Claire, who became a mom to the twin sisters. The couple soon discussed having a child together and Aaden had put his transition on pause again - this time to give birth to a single baby daughter, Cove, who is now two months old. Although Aaden describes his family as a "typical family", he and Claire have raised the girls to understand that their dad is "special" for "having a baby in his belly" and regularly take them to local Pride events. As Aaden explained to Truly: "Pride is super important in our family. It's full of love and we want our kids to know that they are loved no matter what." But people on social media have not been so open minded. When Aaden shared videos during his pregnancies, he soon received a backlash - with many even accusing Aaden of "lying." As Aaden explained, "I've had comments saying that my pregnant belly was AI and that my baby was a reborn doll." But in response to all the negativity his family have received, Aaden has a defiant message for anyone who might be quick to judge: "I feel sorry for you because our family is very happy and very content and we all love each other very much. Anything you say or do couldn't take that away from us."
