A mum has been left heartbroken after losing custody of her son to a sperm donor who was named the child's 'legal parent'. A judge ruled that Kris Williams should have adopted the child that she had with her wife after the sperm donor they used obtained custody.
A court heard that the case involved Kris Williams and Rebekah Wilson, an Oklahoma same-sex married couple, who were raising a boy conceived using Harlan Vaughn as a sperm donor. Wilson entered into a sperm donor agreement with Vaughn in September 2018, but Williams was not included or referenced in the agreement.
The Mirror reports that following several at-home inseminations in December 2018, Wilson fell pregnant. But after two years of raising the boy, their marriage fell apart, and Wilson obtained a Victim Protective Order against Williams in November 2021.
