One day during lunch with her mother, award winning ABC journalist, Sarah Dingle’s life was turned upside down.
Sarah learned that her Dad, the man that had raised her, wasn’t her biological father. Sarah’s existence was down to an anonymous sperm donor donation back in the 1980s.
The discovery set off a decade long investigation for Sarah, not only to look into her own existence and find her biological father, but into the grim reality surrounding the fertility business.
Sarah has detailed her story and her search in a new book, Brave New Humans and told Francesca Rudkin she was completely blindsided by the her mother's revelation.
"I had no idea. No inkling in the world that I wasn't actually related to him."
