Thomas Beatie Trying for Fourth Child



In an interview with the Sunday Mirror, Thomas Beatie shares that he's fallen in love following his divorce from wife, Nancy, and hopes to expand his family.

Although Beatie, 38, is already a father of three, he hopes to conceive with girlfriend Amber Nicholas.

"Being pregnant is the most incredible experience," he tells the Sunday Mirror. "But we want Amber to do it this time around. I think it would be amazing to experience pregnancy as the father."

Beatie is eager to have another child with Nicholas. "It is even possible we could both be pregnant at the same time. Amber suggested we both try to get pregnant and whoever gets there first goes through with it," he says.


Beatie, a transgender male who preserved his female reproductive organs, first made headlines in 2007 after photos of his bearded face and pregnant belly were made public.

His wife Nancy, who had two children from a previous marriage, was unable to get pregnant following a hysterectomy. While married, the couple had three children together, and Beatie gave birth to all three. After nine years of marriage, the couple filed for divorce last April.

heulog 4th-Sep-2012 04:54 pm (UTC)
Aw. I used to nanny for a toddler twin girls (and their big sister), and they used to do this when the Arthur themesong played.

They loved Arthur and his rasta tunes.
ohsnapohsnap 4th-Sep-2012 05:03 pm (UTC)
OMG STOP WHEN THEY LOOK AT EACH OTHER LIKE OO GURL THATS OUR JAM
deadtree 4th-Sep-2012 04:44 pm (UTC)
Propagation of the species? I hear it's kind of a big deal.

Not that I want kids tho lol
leopard_legs 4th-Sep-2012 05:00 pm (UTC)
I hate to be around kids for too long but at the same time they're so fat and cute and little and I love them.

But whenever I babysit it's so boring, I cannot imagine being that mind numbingly bored all the time. And poor. And with a mother like me they'd be severely fucked up.
evridis 4th-Sep-2012 05:10 pm (UTC)
people want them because their hormones tell them to procreate
eyduh 4th-Sep-2012 04:42 pm (UTC)
i really don't need to know if you're having sex or not
manicpixiegirl 4th-Sep-2012 04:42 pm (UTC)

It is even possible we could both be pregnant at the same time. Amber suggested we both try to get pregnant and whoever gets there first goes through with it," he says.

WTF? Whoever loses aborts the baby? I don't understand this line.


sandstorm 4th-Sep-2012 04:45 pm (UTC)
That's not a bet I'd think I'd like to take...
crashh_world 4th-Sep-2012 04:47 pm (UTC)
I think they mean whoever gets pregnant first is having the baby and the other person stops trying. Otherwise idek that's horrible imo.
jigglemypuff 4th-Sep-2012 04:48 pm (UTC)
Yeah that line is really screwed up.
deadtree 4th-Sep-2012 04:50 pm (UTC)
Or they stop trying to get preggo after that I assume ...
xtinkerbellax 4th-Sep-2012 04:54 pm (UTC)
LOL I read it like that at first and was like wtf, why can't they just both be pregnant if that happens, but then I got what they meant.
milly 4th-Sep-2012 05:01 pm (UTC)
Considering how hard it can be to *stick* the odds they would get pregnant at the same time are really small, in which case I'm sure they'd keep both...

Basically, it means that they both try to get pregnant - whoever gets pregnant first carries the baby. The other ones stops trying to get pregnant. It's really not complicated.
helloneworld 4th-Sep-2012 05:52 pm (UTC)
i am hoping they mean that if one treatment doesn't work, then the next person will try, and if it doesn't work, then the other, etc.

I thought that pic was Jon Gosselin for a second.

dude is looking pretty fine nowadays

a bit of beard scruff will do wonders, i swear <3
tigermilk 4th-Sep-2012 05:17 pm (UTC)
Dude, now is not the time to have more children. You're going through a divorce and I'm sure that your ex-wife is going to fight for custody. Have a baby after everything has settled.
frenchverbs 4th-Sep-2012 07:45 pm (UTC)
Yeah, not getting why he thinks NOW is the time for a new baby. He just separated from his wife this year.
westamp 4th-Sep-2012 09:39 pm (UTC)
Also how is he going to support another kid? Didn't they file for bankruptcy recently? I guess he's hoping there would be some type of product endorsement or reality show he can go onto. I remember he was really bitter when DWTS chose Chaz over him.
arisma 4th-Sep-2012 05:18 pm (UTC)
Am I... detecting... a lack of pronoun fail in this article? Is that allowed?
tigermilk 4th-Sep-2012 05:22 pm (UTC)
It's beautiful.
wingslapped 4th-Sep-2012 05:29 pm (UTC)
I can't remember the last time an article about a trans individual on ONTD didn't have pronoun fail. Bless this post.
laminy 4th-Sep-2012 05:28 pm (UTC)
I honestly forgot who he was, I just knew I recognized the name, and so I was reading it, and then got to "Being pregnant is the most incredible experience," he tells the Sunday Mirror. and I was just like, "but how do you know, slightly familiar man that I've decided is a random British celeb I know nothing about?"

Then I remembered, lol.
