Kristin was born in Marlton, New Jersey and moved 9 times, including a stop in Denver where she discovered her love for performing at 11 years old. Creating shows in her driveway at a young age, she always knew she wanted to bring her creations to audiences everywhere. She was full of dreams and life and did everything in her power to make them come true. Kristin and her husband started a non-profit organization in honor of their daughter, London Quinn, who was stillborn at 39 weeks in July 2021 through surrogacy. Listen as Kristin discuss with Ellen and Jenn: • Being from Los Angeles, dancing for famous stars, and living a fast-paced life. • Moving to Oklahoma for her now-husband and experiencing a drastically different lifestyle. • Having the conversation of starting their family and taking over 7 years to get pregnant. • The heartbreak of their first ultrasound and the harshness of the medical staff. • Experiencing extreme pain and receiving a diagnosis of endometriosis. • Undergoing a hysterectomy, but still wanting a family. • Finding surrogacy and being matched. • Her surrogate’s flawless pregnancy, • Feeling something wrong on delivery day. • The worst imaginable moment. • Through heartbreak, shock, and overwhelming pain, finding clarity and willingness to go on. • Starting “London is the Reason” to support those going through loss through surrogacy -- both the Intended Parents and Surrogates Want to share your story or ask a question?
