Pearl Carter (72) and Phil Bailey (26) were waiting for their surrogate child. The granny and grandson’s promiscuous relationship is being widely discussed by the bloggers.

New Idea Magazine in New Zealand reported that Pearl is now using her pension ($ 54,000) to pay for the surrogate mother.

I'm not interested in anyone else's opinion. I am in love with Phil and he's in love with me. Soon I'll be holding my son or daughter in my arms and Phil will be the proud dad," said Pearl.

Phil is the son of Pearl's daughter Lynette Bailey-who the pensioner put up for adoption when she was just 18, the magazine reported.

When Lynette died with brain cancer, Phil tracked down his long lost granny in 2006, and they started their strange relationship.

From the first moment that I saw him, I knew we would never have a grandmother-grandson relationship. For the first time in years I felt sexually alive," Pearl told New Idea.

I love Pearl with all my heart. I've always been attracted to older women and I think Pearl is gorgeous. Now I'm going to be a dad and I can't wait. Yes, we get laughed at and bullied when we go out and kiss in public but we don't care. You can't help who you fall for," says Phil

The pair has asked 30-year-old Roxanne Campbell to carry their child.

Pearl said: "I am finally going to be a mum and not forced to give up my child. Phil's going to be a great dad. I never in a million years thought at 72 I'd be 'pregnant' and in love with my grandson. I make no apologies and I believe God's given me a second chance." (msn)
