Who is Fredrik Eklund's husband, Derek Kaplan?
Derek Kaplan is a self-taught abstract artist who lives and works in Los Angeles. He moved to London at the age of 21, the place he pursued many alternative profession paths and entrepreneurial ventures ahead of deciding to grow to be a full-time artist.
In 2010, Derek met Fredrik whilst the realtor was on vacation in Greece. "There are always two sides to every story but Derek claims he had never seen anyone more handsome and he was confused because he didn't know this blue-eyed guy standing in front of him smiling like he was about to do the biggest deal of his life," Fredrik recalled in a weblog put up on the occasion of their five-year anniversary.
"My side of the story is that I saw an angel — the hottest angel I've ever seen, I swear on it. ... One moment, alone — the next, heartbeat in love," Fredrik persevered. "That's how life can turn."
Soon enough, Derek joined Fredrik in New York and the two went on to have really beautiful 3-year-old twins, Freddy and Milla.
Derek Kaplan has a third child, Kai, who nonetheless lives in London.
After spending the pandemic at their Los Angeles house, Fredrik has been taking a look to increase the family and revealed on Million Dollar Listing that he had already reached out to the surrogate who carried their twins.
"[Misty] is saying if we are ever going to have more kids, it's decide now," Fredrik told his husband. Derek used to be vocal about the fact that they slightly have by myself time since they spend so much power on the kids, and that any other child "would accelerate that more."
He also reminded Fredrik of the fact that the surrogacy procedure wasn't easy the first time round. "I like a simple life that's full," Derek defined. In response, Fredrik stated, "You shouldn't have married me if you wanted a simple life."
While Fredrik is simplest the father to the twins he and Derek raise together, Derek has any other kid who lives back in London, named Kai. In 2016, Derek and Fredrik printed on Million Dollar Listing that Derek had donated his sperm to a lesbian couple in London sometime round 2009. The couple got pregnant nearly straight away, and Kai has been a part of Fredrik and Derek's relationship since day one.
"I love him like he's my own son," Fredrik posted on Instagram again in 2015.
