Woman meets her biological father after unexpected results from a DNA test kit

After Sabrina Payne received surprising results from an at-home DNA test kit, she met her biological father, Duane Kellems, for the first time.

[@MegaBluedolphin]

She looks so much like her dad. Oh my Lord.! He loves her so much.

[@NativeNYerChicHK]

Tupou Finucane same way it happened with my uncle and his daughter, except she was on a hunt for her bio dad,,, However my 70 yr old uncle had no idea he had any children at all until she popped up on my Ancestry DNA shared matches, I brought them together. They look exact, like twins!! The love was instant and hasn’t stopped growing. It’s been a really beautiful thing to watch.

I disagree that they are embarrassed. They , for the most part, deceptive people, in my opinion. Why lie to the innocent child & man? It’s insane

This is my life long wish to find my biological father. So happy for her.

unreal. her biological dad seems like a really nice man. glad they were finally reunited

Damn I feel for guy who got tricked.

[@cpvsgvmnt2116]

We just gonna ignore all these women lying to the men and saying the baby is theirs?

[@randomvintagefilm273]

Omg, I can't imagine being one of those women who lied about who the father was, crapping in their pants over the last few years wondering when their kid is going to take a DNA test!

[@shadowkissed2370]

I am in a DNA group training to be a search angel. Sometimes the women lash out in anger that the adult child would even "do that to them" meaning take the test and call them out. Sometimes it can be devastating on all ends. I have seen stories work out for everyone involved and everyone gets a wonderful life with each other after they find out, and stories that are the complete opposite toxic on both sides people and the adult child losses everyone. Either way it is a sad and scary time when someone finds out that their parent that raised them isn't really their parent.

[@tracyc.8992]

its not always a "lie" situation, don't judge ever unless you are literally wearing the shoes

[@davidsmnje]

@@tracyc.8992 yeah I totally disagree, when you're uncertain about who the baby daddy is( one usually knows who they sleep with) its your secret thus your responsibility to get a paternity test! You don't get to pick and chose who you want the father to be, when you're uncertain yourself! You're just lying not only to yourself but to everyone! Keeping quiet in the face of doubt/uncertain is a choice thus a lie!

[@lorenataia6479]

Poor dad the one who raise her... it must be hard.

[@MidlandTexan]

Yeah, it has happened in my family.

[@aftersexhighfives]

I dunno... She's still his daughter. He raised her. She now has two fathers. Dad that raised her might have always known it was a possibility, keybowl parties are a thing still happening today. My ex husband knows, he knew from minute one. Other guy doesn't want to know if he's dad we are still friends and talk often, I didn't cheat; was just how our marriage was. It dissolved because my ex thinks Amway is some magic shortcut and I divorced him over it. You can't fix stupid, and you don't have to stay married to stupid. Amway should be illegal. Stupid cult. 🤬🤬🤬Sorry off topic. But🧐 Those 20+ yr old bonds don't dissolve over a little squabble like blood. You just get more kin, more love to share. Who can be upset about more love.🥰 Even if Dad didn't know, it's not the child's fault and any strife should be hidden and handled without the child seeing it. Even if that child is 64, they are still the child in the situation. Seeing the possible resulting divorce is impossible to shield them from, but it's not something that should be discussed with the child. The facts speak for themselves and there's not really much to question about facts. Just questions about who this missing person is, how much of the curious child is nature from the missing parent and how much was nutured from the dad that raised them.

[@grapeape888]

He's not her father, he's just a man who helped raise her. Her biological father passed on his DNA, the "stepfather" did not. He has no children. Facts don't care about being socially polite.

[@aftersexhighfives]

She really looks like her paternal grandmother she's not related to, too though. It's crazy.

@@jayschecter3720 hi Jay, my heart goes out to you. I have now met my father and I guess I should have left well enough alone when it came to meeting him. He did not reject me but her for sure does not reach out to me and since we have finally met, I have been the one who has been trying to keep up the communication. There is zero reciprocation on his part.

Yo… what happened to the dude who raised her? Like… did he know?

[@moonnuchamling9875]

Same horrible thing and sad thing for a daugter happened to one of my relatives\old neighbour too. Her father was to take all his children from both marriage to U.K as he is British Army but when they all had to do D.N.A test. They found out the daughter wasnt his real biological daughter and mother knew about it all these years. Even neighbours knew she had affairs with men behind her husband´s back but they didn't care because husband was also same type. But the daughter hurt the most. She cried and cried. She was mentally depressed because of sudden unexpected information about herself. She still doesn't know her real father but people say they know. The man they claim\doubt has wife, children and he is poor and alcoholic. but now she is doing fine and working hard. God bless her

[@mdshoiebulhaque5599]

It's a happy story at the end. But, I saw one incident, where daughter came to know by dna test that her biological father isn't he, whom she knew from the beginning. Then, when she communicated with her biological matched member, she came to know, he died 5 years ago and he was single in his whole life and at the moment of died he was alone 😭 How hurtful it is for a daughter that she couldn't meet with her father as well as concede this kind of sorrowing story! I think whatever what happened, every child have this right to know who is his biological parents. How hard it is,that's not a matter, how much betrayal it is to keep secret the real fact and how mich grieving they feel when they somehow can know that, that's the matter.

[@kimbachapman9856]

That’s a big blessing!! He is so loving 🥰 and I think it came natural to just pick her up because he already has a daughter so it’s cool!! Beautiful story

I hope you are able to find them. Start with the orphanage. Your Mum must have had good reasons to give you up, please be kind to her. Life is very hard for poor people everywhere.

As do most parents who don't give their kids up for adoption .it's not really something to boast about really.. circumstances happen in resulting in adoptions..ppl are adopted for different reasons but obviously there are more that aren't and I've never heard any parent say my kids don't need a DNA I know who my kids dad is..so do I..so do most who are together as a family..it just so happens adoptions happen and not all mothers tell their kids who their dad is..so...it's not anything to boast about as it's normal for families not to adopt out their kids,just some families can't handle it.
