Shilpa and her husband, businessman Raj Kundra welcomed Samisha on February 15, 2020, via surrogacy. They were already parents to son, Viaan. She shared the news through a social media post. In May 2020, talking to Pinkvilla, Shilpa revealed she opted for surrogacy after she had a few miscarriages. 

“After Viaan, I did want to have another child for the longest time. But I suffered from an auto immune disease called APLA and that came into play every time I get pregnant. So I had a couple of miscarriages so it was a genuine issue,” she said. 

“I didn’t want Viaan to grow up as a single child, because I’m also one of two and I know how important it is to have a sibling. Coming from that thought, I did explore other ideas as well but that didn’t pan out well. At a time when I wanted to adopt, I had put in my name and everything was underway. But then, the Christian missionary shut down because they had a tiff with Kara. I waited for nearly four years and then, I was so irritated and we decided to try the surrogacy route,” Shilpa added.
