- Caution
- Anti-abortion organization Live Action argued in a post on X that the embryo discussion illustrated what it called the 'commodification of children' in IVF.

Still unverified
Newsweek noted the public information does not establish what agreement Kardashian and Thompson signed when the embryo was created, so her statement alone cannot establish why she says she has unilateral authority.
