In an odd story out of Dallas, a mother is reported to have given births to twin boys that do not have the same father. Yes, you read that right, and according to FOX 4 it can happen and even has a medical term, heteropaternal superfecundation. It’s probably not worth memorizing though, as apparently it is so rare it “is likely to be the only time that we will ever see this occur in the city of Dallas,” said one doctor.
At any rate, what happened was that the mother, Mia Washington, had an affair during marriage resulting (the story has all the details of how the “medical marvel” can happen). Eventually, after she and her husband noticed the twins had different facial features (and perhaps reading about babies switched at birth?) they went to a lab to get a paternity test, and got the scoop that one of the twins. However, Washington indicates “she has no plans to tell” the other father about his son, people might wonder about how the law looks at a father in such circumstances.
Fortunately for Mia Washington and her husband, James Harrison, there is no such issue, as they are trying to work things out despite the challenges involved under the circumstances. James said he’s “forgiven his fiancé’s infidelity and has vowed to stay with her and raise both boys as his own.”
