‘Why I married my biological sister after 4 children’
A man named James Paul, 34 years old, has recounted how he got married to his biological sister.
Paul had met and fallen in love with his sister, primarily because they had not been reared together.

Paul ended up falling in love with a woman who turned out to be his sister, and together they had four children.
Paul said, “We were unaware of our relationship until after our third child was born, and my wife was pregnant with our fourth child.
”Discovering our real relationship was a shocking and challenging experience, especially since it felt like it was too late to change anything.”
He spoke further, “The revelation came during a family gathering with aunts and uncles. When I introduced my wife to them, their reaction was one of disbelief and shock. They explain the connection between us, revealing that we were related to both our mother and father. I was raised by my grandmother, and after the death of my father, she had been raised elsewhere.
“Despite hearing the truth, we decided not to end our relationship. We chose to stay together for the sake of our children.”
