Yet through fear and uncertainty, Charli chose transparency. She shared her story openly, facing criticism and praise alike. Some questioned her choices, but she responded with grace: “Bringing a child into this world with my odds isn’t simple — it’s personal, filled with love, faith, and courage.”
In February 2021, her perseverance was rewarded. Charli gave birth to a healthy son, Rip. Her post captured the emotion perfectly: “I’m tired, but ever so grateful. There’s no ‘correct’ way to do motherhood, but there’s no wrong way either.” Her words resonated globally, a reminder that love defines parenthood, not perfection.
Today, Tilba, Tully, and Rip fill their home with laughter, messes, and stories — ordinary, extraordinary, and everything in between. Through her platform, Charli educates the world about inclusivity, genetic diversity, and empathy, showing that a family’s value lies in heart, not height.
Charli and Cullen’s journey proves that courage, love, and resilience can overcome fear and judgment. Their story is living proof: big hearts make the strongest families.
