Selina and her husband Joseph, to whom she was married for 10 years and had three children, were faced with the shocking truth after taking a DNA test. According to The Sun, the results of the analysis showed that the couple are cousins. The couple was unaware of this relationship until they decided to take a test to find out more about their roots.
“When I found out we were cousins, I felt bad. At first I thought we had to separate, but then I decided that for the sake of the children we should stay together,” Selina said.
Joseph initially denied the test results, but later, after carefully studying the genetic data, admitted their veracity. The couple also reported their discovery to their children, who were confused and scared.
“Sometimes I feel a little strange. This is not a situation to be proud of. If the parents found out about their relationship before the wedding, it would be wrong. But as they found out later, I don’t see any problem with it,” his eldest son shared.
Selina decided to tell her story on social media, where she faced a lot of criticism. Some users called their marriage “concerning,” while others expressed sympathy for the children.
Despite the negative comments, Selina and Joseph decided to save their marriage for the sake of their family and continue living together despite the unexpected discovery.
