A 25-year-old woman who is a mother to 21 young children has spoken out after her husband got arrested.
Kristina Ozturk from Batumi, Georgia, is a former stripper who welcomed 21 surrogate babies after tying the knot with 57-year-old millionaire and business owner Galip Ozturk.
As the couple announced following their marriage, they planned on having up to 105 babies through surrogates. They also revealed how IVF and surrogates already cost them nearly $200,000 and how they spend $100,000 per year on their 16 live-in nannies.
Kristina and Galip’s plans to become parents of more than one hundred children, however, have come to a halt after the Metro Turizm bus company owner was arrested on money laundering charges.
Speaking out following her husband’s arrest, the young mom admitted she’s having a hard time while waiting for her husband to return home.
“Many of you have noticed with the events happening in our family, it’s been harder for me to keep the page,” the 25-year-old wrote on Instagram where she has over 228,000 followers.
“It’s hard to talk about some household things or joys when all thoughts are far away and busy just waiting for my husband to come home to us.”
She added: “I’m sure that day will come soon, but in the meantime, I just want to say thank you so much for all your support and kind words.”
The update comes three months after Galip’s arrest was broadcasted and confirmed by the country’s finance ministry.
Following weeks after the arrest, Kristina first spoke out about the incident and admitted it was “difficult” waking up alone and not being able to see or hear her husband.
“I’m used to my husband always being at home, always around. Since Galip has been working exclusively from home for the last few years, we spent time together constantly during the day. At night, when the children were put to bed, we chatted incessantly,” she said back in June.
“Now it’s more difficult than ever for me, I can’t stand silence, I can’t stand his absence, I can’t sleep and wake up alone, I can’t see his empty workplace… I can’t see his smile, I can’t hear his voice, I can’t feel his embrace.”
