Transcription: 
We created a great relationship with our surrogate before and after the birth. There's a lot of trust, and that's important. You have to trust that the person who's carrying your child will do everything for that child to be born healthy. We spent a lot of time with Angela, and we had a lot of vacations together and fun times. And at the last stretch, she came and lived with us. So we were going through it with her. And that was a tremendous bond. Afterward though, we knew we had to separate. And I knew that she was very sad because she was not only separating from the children she just gave birth to, but from us as well. But after a little bit of time, we got together with her, and more times. There's become a very natural relationship with Angela.

Desmond Child

Songwriter & Producer

For nearly 4 decades, songwriter/producer Desmond Child has reigned as one of music’s most successful creative forces.  His list of accolades includes Grammy awards, 70 Top 50 singles, and songs that have sold over 300 million albums worldwide.  Child’s career has been highlighted by a stunning array of diversity from Bon Jovi and Aerosmith to Ricky Martin, Alice Cooper, KISS and Katy Perry.   Despite having worked for nearly 40 years as a writer, producer, and artist, Child remains energized and enthusiastic.  TWO: The Story of Roman and Nyro documents the 12-year journey of Desmond and his lifelong partner of 24 years, Curtis Shaw, and the extraordinary way they met and connected with Angela Whittaker, the woman who would carry their twin sons, Roman and Nyro, into the world.  From preconception through the boy’s first 10 years, TWO is the personal and powerful story of these unique individuals whose lives become inextricably woven together in magical and unexpected ways.  TWO is a testament to the universal power and ultimate triumph of love – that it is love that makes a family, affirming that modern families may be modern in their making, but timelessly human at their core.
