Gerald\u2019s doubts about his middle child Aidan\u2019s appearance led him to request a paternity test, unaware that it would shatter his 12-year marriage.<\/p>\n
One day, while looking at his son\u2019s school photo, Gerald realized Aidan looked different from his brothers. This sparked doubts that grew over time, especially after the birth of their third son, Owen, who resembled his older brother Liam. Gerald couldn\u2019t shake the thought that Aidan didn\u2019t look like him.<\/p>\n
