A man has been left mortified after realising he married his cousin after buying a DNA testing kit for fun. He explained how he remarried a woman from his small town after the breakdown of his first relationship - and has been co-parenting with her ever since.
The couple both have three children from previous relationships - but do not have their own together. Taking to Reddit, the man said: "My current wife and I went to high school together in a small town.
"Both of our families are well known in the area with deep roots - both families have been here a long time." Without thinking too much into it, he bought his wife a DNA testing kit as she wanted to learn more about her European roots.
