Lance Bass is ready for a baby in 2019

Lance Bass is ready to become a dad in 2019.

“The most surprising part about the surrogacy process was how long this takes,” the Barefoot Sleigh Team member told Page Six. “We had several friends going through this and it took a little while but I think we’ve broken the record for how many donors we’ve gone through. We’re on donor number six right now and we don’t even know if that one’s gonna work. So, it has been a lot longer than I thought. But, hey, here’s to a 2019 baby!”

Bass, 39, added that it hasn’t been as easy for him and husband Michael Turchin, 31, to find a donor, saying: “You would think I would get so many offers for eggs but not many people have come to me with their eggs! I think I’m going to have to tweet it out right now!”

The couple, who tied the knot in 2014, announced they were on the road to fatherhood in April 2018 and revealed that they had picked a surrogate in June.

The former boy bander — who is ringing in the New Year in Times Square — first expressed how excited he was to become a dad in 2016, gushing, “I think of all of us selfishly want to try to raise the best kid possible, just so we can have a better person in this world, helping out. And so I hope to raise some good kids that will leave a good mark on this world.”
