Aiden welcomes baby sister: Anupama and Ajith celebrate birth of their second child

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Anupama and Ajith, the couple who previously made headlines with a high-profile adoption controversy, have welcomed their second child, a baby girl. Ajith shared the news on social media, expressing joy over the arrival of their daughter. The family, including their elder son Aidan, is popular on YouTube and other social media platforms, where they regularly share videos with a significant viewer base.

The couple gained national attention when Anupama accused her parents of putting her first child up for adoption without her consent. This allegation sparked a political storm, drawing in the CPM, the Kerala government and the Child Welfare Committee (CWC). Anupama’s legal battle to regain custody of her son became a prominent media story, shedding light on child adoption policies and procedural lapses.

In the initial stages of the controversy, Anupama’s parents handed the child over to the CWC, who arranged a temporary adoption with a couple from Andhra Pradesh. However, once the story became public, the adoption was halted. Following a court-supervised DNA test that confirmed Anupama’s parentage, the Andhra couple returned the child to her and Ajith.
