\"I am forever grateful to everyone who has been involved, (you know who you are), this has been years in the making,\" she added. \"But particularly wanted to thank my gorgeous surrogate who carried her and birthed her with such grace and care. Thank you for helping me start my own family, it's an amazing gift. The BEST gift!!\"

Last year, Wilson opened up about her struggle with fertility, telling fans on Instagram that she feels for women who are also struggling with having children.

\"The universe works in mysterious ways and sometimes it all doesn't make sense,\" she said at the time. \"But I hope there's light about to shine through all the dark clouds.\"
