An unnamed South African couple is in shock after discovering that they are brother and sister, the UK’s Daily Mail reports. They dated for five years and got engaged…and when their parents met just days before their planned wedding, it was revealed that they are brother and sister.
Their parents split up when the woman was eight months old and the man was two years old. Neither of them knew about each other, and they grew up separately about fifty miles apart, the boy with their father and the girl with their mother. The worst part: the woman is pregnant with her brother’s child.
“It was love at first sight. We were studying together at Tshwane University of Technology in Nelspruit,” the woman said. “When I first saw him, we connected. We fell in love and since that day, we never looked back. All we wanted to do was just to have a family and many kids. So you can imagine how shocked we were when they broke the news. We are going to have a child together. We do not know what we will tell him when he grows up.” The couple decided to split after learning the shocking news.
As sad as this story is, it’s not a surprise to psychiatrists; half of those separated from relatives at a young age experience strong sexual feelings when they are reunited.
