A man who discovered that the son and daughter he raised into their teenage years were not his has been awarded £25,000 in damages after suing his ex-wife for deceit.

Richard Rodwell was a loving father to Adam and Laura until his marriage to their mother Helen broke down.

After the divorce he paid regular child maintenance for more than four years, from his salary as a factory manager.



But in 2008 Mr Rodwell ordered DNA tests after hearing rumours about his daughter’s paternity – and the results showed that each child was fathered by a different man.

Following the results, the children cut off all contact with him. He claims his ex-wife turned them against him.

Guess the children took more after their deceitful mother than after their honest hardworking step father!!
Guess the ungrateful behaviour could be in their genes?!

it should be legal that babies get dna test as soon as their born. even then im sure some woman would still find a way to beat the system but it is a start

Maybe he wasn't a good father.. Maybe after realizing they had no blood ties to him .. They were relieved they no longer had to endure him....

But far as ur comment " shouldn't it b the other way around" that's crazy... A man raise kids to the teens and would cut contact? I don't think most guys would do that...

something nah right

story say he was loving

so why dem cut him off??

anyways, 25k cannot pay for time and love, so the money means nothing IMO

It sounds like he divorced the mother first...and after a couple of years requested the DNA test. So, they were already on estranged terms and the Test just broke what was already cracked.

what calabire of lead she deserve....lol

I read somewhere that 1 in 7 cases in some (developed) countries that father is not the biological father and believes he is.SMH

I believe regardless of the stats that in each case where the woman knows the truth and still lets that man carry on with those children as though they are his and not tell him the truth it is deceitful and WRONG WRONG WRONG.

It's true. Back in the day in science classes they used to teach basic genetics by having kids do things like rolling their tongue so that they could learn about dominant and recessive traits. They had to put it to a stop though cuz MANY people were finding out their kids had traits that couldn't have come from either the mother or the presumed father lol. Even now when you have a child that requires a blood transfusion they ask the mother before they ask the father just in case she knows the kid aint his blood type and likely isn't his child.
