When DNA Test Results Expose Shocking Family Secrets

Kelli Rowlette’s story made headlines after receiving shocking DNA results from Acesntry.com. She knew she wasn’t related to her father as her parents went to a sperm bank to conceive and were interested in learning more about her heritage. But what the DNA test revealed about her biological father was appalling. 

When you use someone else’s DNA to conceive, you usually receive general information about the donor. Rowlette’s parents were fooled when the fertility doctor they worked with used his own sperm to impregnate the mother. This is the first story on our list where DNA test results led to a lawsuit. Rowlette sued the doctor for five charges.
