'I ruined my family with a DNA test - it says my dad isn't my biological father'

A woman has discovered through an ancestry DNA test that her dad isn't her biological father. Despite having suspicions for years, the 27-year-old was shocked after her mum came clean that she didn't share the same DNA as her 70-year-old dad.

Upon finding out the results, the woman's mother insisted that she can't break the news to her dad as it'll 'hurt him after all these years'. Turning to popular forum site Reddit for advice, the woman sought help on how she should proceed with the situation.

Afraid that the truth may 'devastate [her father] for the rest of his life', the woman believes that he's worthy of finding out the truth. She explained: "I found out my dad isn't my biological father at 27."
