Young Man Is Going To Have A Baby With His Sister

2^min

The idea that families come in all shapes and sizes has never been truer with adoption, same-sex relationships and new ways to conceive.

Writer Samuel Leighton-Dore, 25, said that h decided with his sister to have his child - and has opened up about the negative comeback it has received.

Samuel, from Sydney, is in a relationship with photographer and designer Bradley Tennant but doesn't want to miss out on their baby having both of their family's genes.

As a compromise, his sister Bronte has agreed to donate her eggs so that the couple can have the family they've always dreamed of.

"It's not too strange when you think about it. We'll be using IVF. It'll be my sister's egg and my partner's sperm with a third-party surrogate, preferably someone who already has a family of their own,” Samuel said.

Bronte won't be known as the baby’s mother but Sam thinks he and Bradley will call her a 'special auntie' or 'fairy godmother'.

The couple has a great support system and has had a wonderfully positive response from their immediate family.
