The only confusion is with the birth date.......

Ask your friend to check her facts..............and do the maths

And what do you mean by saying you have 'lost' him?

What are you trying to achieve?

Surely he didn't father a child at that age - with woman 40 years his junior?

You must have skipped a generation
