Ana Obregón has been involved in a large wave of criticism after having starred in an emotional interview on the program ¡De Viernes!, where she shared some details about the last days of her son, Aless Lequio, and her post-mortem wishes.
During the interview, Ana revealed that her son left specific instructions for the use of his biological samples in the event of his death, which has been fulfilled under a holographic will: “Aless says if something ever happens to me, I want to leave this world something of mine. I want you to take the samples that are in New York in the laboratory and he wrote it, he said, in case I die, I give my parents the right to use this semen so that some of my sons or daughters remain on earth.
This request from her son, who is under a notary, is what convinces the biologist that she had to bring her granddaughter Ana Sandra into the world, as she did: “I have inherited, I have not bought a baby, I have inherited it , it’s mine”.
This claim has sparked heated debate about the ethics of his actions and the future implications for his offspring. In this sense, numerous social media users have expressed their discontent and have accused Obregón of acting inappropriately.
Social media users have expressed their discontent and accused Obregón of acting inappropriately. A common criticism focuses on the nature of inheritance, arguing that “property, movable and immovable, even rights, are inherited, but not people,” suggesting that the actress has treated Ana Sandra as an inheritable object, comparable to a material possession such as “a flat.”
Other voices have pointed out the possible psychological repercussions for the baby, highlighting the dilemma of growing up knowing that her existence is the result of a controversial and widely debated public decision: “Growing up and finding out that the one you treat as a mother is actually your grandmother who had you put the sperm of her dead son (your father) into the body of a stranger.”
The situation has been further complicated by comments describing Ana Obregón as a figure in a state of “delirium” and “pathological mourning.” Furthermore, a particularly severe critic mentions that on the girl’s birthday, Obregón chose to display a large photo of Aless: “It’s tremendous.”
Although there are also those who understand the actress’s way of proceeding. A few users have pointed out that Obregón “does not see it that way” and have attacked “the moralists who want to ignore the pain of a mother who loses a child and the desire of a child to leave offspring.”
