Andrew and Nathan are very much in love and have wanted to start a family together for a while. They thought about adopting, but decided to go with a surrogate instead so one of them could be the biological father. They were over the moon when their cleaner’s daughter, Shelly agreed to help them out when they said they’d pay her £10k to carrying their child.

Andrew is very excited to become a father and has taken as much paternity leave as possible from his job as a primary school teacher. As the baby’s due date comes close, he’s busy rushing around trying to get everything ready and buying all the provisions they need for the arrival of their son. He wants constant updates from Shelly and he’s increasingly worried that something will go wrong and she’ll decide to keep the baby.

Nathan is more practical and level-headed. He tries to keep Andrew calm and reassure him that everything will be ok, while also trying to make sure that Shelly is happy as she prepares to delivery her amazing ‘gift’ to them.
