Eklund is certainly a doting dad and ever since announcing the birth of his twins on Nov. 28, 2017, he hasn't hesitated to share tons of photos of his son and daughter.
"Happiest moment of my life. Welcome Fredrick and Milla to the world," Eklund announced at the time.
As fans of Million Dollar Listing: New York may recall, Eklund and Kaplan had been trying for years to start a family with one another. However, in 2015, their chosen surrogate suffered a miscarriage after becoming pregnant with their first set of twins. A year later, they tried again but sadly, the second pregnancy also resulted in a miscarriage.
During an interview with People magazine on Feb. 6, Eklund spoke of his new role as dad to his twins.
“They’re sleeping well, but sometimes I think those two have a little side meeting,” he said. “They’ll decide, ‘Okay, today you’re going to be bad and then when you fall asleep, I’m going to be bad.’ They’re in cahoots! Twins are double the work, but definitely double the joy!”
Following two heartbreaking miscarriages, Eklund and Kaplan enlisted the help of another doctor and a different surrogate. In the end, they were able to successfully welcome Fredrik Jr., the biological son of Kaplan, and Milla, the biological daughter of Eklund.
“This was a long time in the making. So many years and so many difficulties getting here,” he added. “It’s more than I could have ever wanted.”
To see more of Fredrik Eklund, don't miss the premiere of Bethenny & Fredrik on Tuesday, Feb. 6, on Bravo TV at 10 p.m.
