Brit's first Transgender Husband Happy and Wife to start a Family After Meeting Surrogate

One of Britain's first set of Transgender Husband and Wife are happy to start a family after they met some surrogate to bare children for them. Jake and Hannah Graf met three years ago and married at the beginning of 2018.

The transgender couple have recently moved in together after years of splitting their time between Jake’s west London flat and Hannah’s former army barracks at Sandhurst.

They first connected over social media through mutual friends in the transgender community.

Jake, an actor and director, transitioned 10 years ago, while Hannah, who joined the army as a man and served in Royal Electrical Mechanical Engineers, began transitioning five years ago.

Jake told Barcroft TV: “We have that link that most of society will never understand which is a really, really powerful thing to have.

“Our trans identities are just something that kind of eased our getting to know each other - it’s certainly not what brought us together, it’s certainly what not keeps us together, it’s certainly what not defines our relationship and it’s certainly not why we are together. We are together because of everything else and the fact that we are both trans just makes those difficult moments that much easier.”

Keen to have children, the couple are starting 2019 by looking into the surrogacy process.

Jake said: “Our next plan is now surrogacy. So we have already spoken to several agencies about our surrogacy journey and done lots of research.”
