Meghan Trainor Expands Her Family
Meghan Trainor wanted a big family—and now she has one. The 32-year-old singer and her husband, Daryl Sabara, welcomed a baby girl via surrogacy, becoming a family of five. Despite the joy, Meghan faced online backlash for her announcement. Some critics questioned her motives, claiming she chose surrogacy to maintain her figure.
Introducing Baby Mikey Moon
On January 18, 2026, Meghan shared photos cradling her newborn and revealed the baby’s name: Mikey Moon Trainor. She explained that her sons, Riley (4) and Barry (2), helped pick the middle name. Meghan praised the surrogate, calling her a “superwoman,” and thanked the medical team who made the birth possible.
She described surrogacy as the “safest way” to grow their family after countless conversations with doctors. “We are over the moon in love with this precious girl,” Meghan wrote. “Riley and Barry have been so excited. We are going to enjoy our family time now, love you all.”

Fans React to Surrogacy
While many celebrated, some online critics trolled Meghan. Comments ranged from questioning her choice to implying she only used surrogacy to avoid pregnancy weight gain. “She didn’t want to ruin her new skinny body,” wrote one person. Others criticized her for appearing to act as if she gave birth herself.
Supporters pushed back, defending her choice: “People should stop judging…anyone can use a surrogate for medical or personal reasons. That moment is magical and should be celebrated.” Another fan praised her bonding time with the newborn, noting the importance of skin-to-skin contact.
Balancing Family and Career
Meghan has previously shared her hopes for a large family. In 2023, she told People, “Each kid’s going to bring a new version of me…so I need four, at least!” Despite the challenges, she called parenting her favorite part of life and stressed the importance of support.
She credits her nanny, her mother, her husband, managers, and team for helping her balance career and family. Therapy and medication also help her maintain mental health while managing her household and music projects.
Looking Ahead
Meghan is set to release her seventh album, Toy With Me, in April 2026. For now, she is focusing on her growing family and cherishing every moment with her three children. The baby’s arrival highlights her dedication to family while sparking conversations about surrogacy, public scrutiny, and modern parenting choices.
