Blair Clark and his wife Leah have spent more than four years on their YouTube show, The Leah and Blair Slog, helping people reconnect with relatives they’ve never known, or lost touch with. The couple, who live in the Philippines, have helped adoptees find biological parents and Amerasian Filipinos find fathers once stationed at U.S. naval and air bases. But in a remarkable twist Blair has recently become the seeker of a missing part of his own family history. According to a report by Upworthy, Blair was given a DNA testing kit from MyHeritage, a family history and genetic testing company. He signed up for the platform and found a 22.7% DNA match with a 66-year-old woman in San Antonio, Texas, named Fiona. The match suggested Fiona could be an aunt or a half-sister. As Blair started to look into the connection, the evidence was pointing more and more to an incredible conclusion: Fiona was his long-lost sister. The find was especially poignant as Blair had known a family secret since the age of 20. His mother, Isabel, told him that she'd had a child when she was 19, and she'd placed the baby for adoption.
