In 2017, the life of Charles, emblematic candidate of Ch’tis of W9, has switched. Sarah, his companion at the time from whom he is now separated, gave birth to their first child … of whom he is actually not the father! It was only several months after the arrival of little Eleanore that he learned the terrible news. In video interview with Jeremstar in Baby story, he indulges in this difficult moment.
“When she was born I was the happiest man in the world. She immediately gave me a lot of love and I was immediately very protective of her. I immediately took my role to heart, I really wanted to be the perfect daddy, he confides. I went from child to adult. The child becomes the priority of your life. Today I don’t regret anything because she gives me a lot of love. I love her and will love her all my life. It changed my life, my daily life, the man that I am.“
The first three months, Charles was on cloud nine. And then his daughter’s melanin caught up with him. “At first she was white when she was born. She stayed white for three months and the pigmentation started to come in. It’s a very, very hard time because you start to ask yourself questions. And you tell yourself that it’s not possible, that it’s a nightmare, he recalls. I’m white, so is my ex-wife… You think of a problem, an illness, you don’t want to see reality in the face.“Especially since his ex-partner formally denies a possible deception and assures him that he is the father.”We are on a lie. I hardly slept at night anymore. In France we are not allowed to do DNA tests, except in criminal investigations or that sort of thing. We need a legal framework. I did this DNA test in England, the result is clear: 0%“, then declares Charles.
Finally, faced with the facts, Sarah, “escort girl” business, told the truth: “This child was conceived with a client. She confessed …“A very difficult time for the young dad who had”dark thoughts“.”I thought about killing myself. I drank alcohol when I woke up, because I needed to forget. I wanted to stop thinking, it was driving me crazy, he says. And finally, I am a man, I assume.“Today, he lives with Eléanore, who fills him with happiness.”I did not adopt her, I recognized her as my daughter despite knowing that she was not mine“, he confides. And the father-daughter duo lives a fusional relationship like never before!
