Too close for comfort: A woman has told how she unknowingly dated her half-brother for more than six months after her father had another family in secret (stock picture)

It transpired that Corey was the product of her father's secret affair that no-one but her uncle knew about.

Recalling the chain of events she said: ' On a visit to my parents' home one weekend, I told them all about my new love and my dad suggested that we throw a BBQ so he can grill the new man in his daughter’s life. I was thrilled!



'Corey was was nervous, but excited; he had heard so much about my family that he felt like he practically knew them already.



'I assured him that he would fit right in and as we walked into the backyard I had no idea how right we would both be.

'We cut through the crowd to my dad, who had his back to us; he was laughing his heart out until he turned around to shake Corey’s hand. He dropped his plate of ribs and his mouth to the floor.



'Corey could only manage one word: ''Dad?'' My confused family members and I echoed him. ''Dad?!'' '

'I’m learning to trust again and maybe one day I’ll even love - but please believe I’ll be getting a DNA test first'

Her uncle explained that her father, who was always a bit of a ladies' man, had another family which consisted of Corey, his two sisters and their mother.



'I had been dating, screwing and loving my own flesh and blood for over 6 months and didn’t know it,' the young woman explained,' My mother’s heart broke and so did mine.'

Growing up she was aware that her father attracted female attention but she never heard him talking about having any other children.



Her parents are now in the process of divorce and she has no contact with Corey, or her half-sisters, at Corey's request.

They live a few hours away from each other in different U.S. states.



Despite being the 'best dad' to her full brother, full sister and herself she said that the incident has impacted on her relationship with her father, and she is slowly trying to rebuild ties.
