I don't think it's a weird separation at all, because if she has been pursuing her single motherhood path for a long time, as she's documented in her infertility struggles, then it's clearly her priority. Probably 2+ years in the making. If she just met her partner 7 months ago, it makes sense to not expect or pressure that person into parenthood. If it works out, great but if not then I assume her priority is her baby and the partner won't be a partner anymore.
Like anything else you have your priorities, you presumably share those with any long-term partner, and if they don't support those priorities then it's not a good fit. One or both walks away.

^^^ Exactly. And maybe the gf wouldn't want to make that kind of commitment since the relationship is new. If the relationship lasts, they could always do a legal adoption later if they want. Or Rebel could keep things as they are, then she never has to worry about a custody battle when they split.

Yeah I would think this something she discussed along the way with the gf. Especially with a surrogate likely already being pregnant with the baby if the relationship is only 7 months old and the baby is now being born. If the gf wasn't up for potentially being involved then my guess is she wouldn't have stuck around. And why if you're keen on a child (especially to the point where you already had one cooking) would you bother with someone who wasn't interested in the same?

 She looks like a particularly beautiful baby - wish we could see her whole face. Congratulations Rebel! That's the best "No Paparazzi" pose ever. Those Lambchop socks are killing me. Oh! Dolem said the same thing!  |

And why if you're keen on a child (especially to the point where you already had one cooking) would you bother with someone who wasn't interested in the same? I'm sure they discussed it, and the fact that they've continued the relationship makes me believe that the gf is interested in a family. However, having a baby isn't a choice they made together, and it is a choice that is going to have an impact on a relatively new relationship. The idea of a baby may be something that sounds great to the gf, but who knows what the reality will be. Despite what everyone likes to say, people usually don't really know what they're getting into.
Personally, I hope this relationship thrives and Rebel gets not only her beautiful baby, but also a great partner to share her life.
