Banks has two boys born to the same surrogate, Felix, 3, and Magnus, 1.
“As a mother, you realize very early on when you’re holding your baby that your greatest wish for them is that they are happy and healthy, ” Banks said in a statement. She praised March of Dimes for its ongoing dedication to helping families with premature births and birth defects.
Over $1 million was raised for March of Dimes at the 2013 event, where Banks presented the Grace Kelly Award to Reese Witherspoon.
